What about Bushfires?In most cases you will be made aware of the approach or potential threat of a bushfire with up to 24hours notice. This is because typically the major bushfires have started along major roads or in builtup zones. That means the fires have to travel a reasonable distance to get to the Berowra Waters area.
Exceptions to this are fires that are started by lightning strikes close by in the National Parks. Fortunately these have not been a common. Other fires that may start within Berowra Waters are usually spotted and dealt with quickly.
Most bushfires will tend to approach Berowra Waters from the North and West, however this is by no means always the case.
Residents will get formal notification and instruction about bushfire emergencies from NSW Rural Fire Service or other authorized agency such as the Police, National Parks and Wildlife Service, SES or Waterways.
