With unseasonably warm and windy conditions this weekend, Fire and Emergency New Zealand is asking Hawke’s Bay farmers to think twice before undertaking burn-offs.

Principal Rural Fire Officer Trevor Mitchell says with temperatures expected to get close to 20 degrees, anyone planning on lighting a fire needs to be cautious.

"Anywhere where dry grass is present has an escalated fire risk. This can cause a fire to quickly spread and cause unnecessary callouts."

If anyone in the community sees a fire that looks like it is getting out of control, don’t hesitate to call 111.
