Firefighters are still working to contain a bush fire which is still out of control at Scone.
The fire off Barton Street has burnt through almost a thousand hectares since it broke out in scorching conditions on Sunday afternoon.
At one stage, the fire went to Emergency Warning level but has since been downgraded to Advice.
Police say there are no reports of property losses or serious injury.
Another bush fire off the Thunderbolts Way at Bretti north of Gloucester has burnt out more than 930 hectares and is being controlled.
