QLD alerts updated 4 November 2026, 8:34 AM AEDT. QPWS alerts

Not an official warning service. A camp page can show the Bureau of Meteorology fire danger rating for that camp's Queensland fire weather district. Queensland declares local fire bans by area, and they are not copied here: check Queensland Fire Department fire bans and restrictions. It does not republish incident warnings. Always check the Queensland Fire Department, Queensland SES, QLDTraffic and the Bureau of Meteorology warnings for Queensland before you travel. In the wet season many northern and western roads and parks close. In an emergency call 000.
