What is the risk of a bushfire to hit Rockhampton?
Rockhampton can certainly be affected by bushfires. During Summer, Rockhampton is a "hot spot" of Queensland, temperature-wise and this, together with the long, dry winters, can result in very dry vegetation, increasing the fuel available for bushfires. In February 2009, the Rockhampton Regional Council released a statement that, in the wake of the devastating bushfires in Victoria, it may need to consider the increased risk of bushfires in the area and introduce regulations that would address the increased risks. Fairly severe bushfires have hit west of Rockhampton, around the Mount Morgan region in September 2009, and this area seems more prone to fires than other areas, as it is so dry, and there is plenty of vegetation. See the related link for a map of the bushfire-prone areas around Rockhampton.

How many bushfires have there been in Victoria?
There have been too many bushfires to number. Despite being in the south, Victoria is one of Australia's hottest and driest states in Summer, and because there is so much dense bushland and sloping mountainsides (which bushfires quickly ascend), bushfires are particularly common in January and February.
