Tasmanians are being warned not to become complacent in milder conditions as bushfires continue to burn across the state.

There are six emergency warnings in place, five of them close to the Riveaux Road, Southwest fire.

“With more challenging fire behaviour predicted towards the middle of this week, and another five-six weeks to go this bushfire season, it’s not the time to become complacent,” Tasmania Fire Service Chief Officer, Chris Arnol said.

“It’s important to remember that bushfire warning levels are changing status regularly and I encourage everyone to seek updated information from the Tasmania Fire Service website.”

The Bureau of Meteorology warned that Wednesday would be the hottest day for the week before possible rainfall and thunderstorms, as a cooler change moves through.

Very high-to-severe fire danger ratings are expected on Wednesday across parts of the state.

There is scope for a total fire ban, especially in the south, later in the week.

A protection plan for the Walls of Jerusalem National Park has been enacted to prevent the Great Pine Tier fire moving in, and some back-burning may be undertaken this week.
