Fire crews are still on the ground in Lovedale working on the bushfire on Lovedale Road.
It's burnt through more than 260 hectares of land and came perilously close to properties yesterday afternoon.
Around 70 firefighters from RFS and National Parks are still on the fire ground this afternoon.
RFS Inspector Ben Shepherd said crews are conducting backburning this afternoon to keep the fire under control.
"Thankfully conditions are more favourable today and crews will be doing some backburning on both the southern and western sides in an effort to try and bring it under control."
"So residents are likely to see some smoke and possible flames as a result of that, but thankfully the conditions are in our favour and we're hopeful we will have the fire contained either today or tomorrow."
"It's a lot cooler, and we've got more southerly winds."
