Bushfire safety in Halls Creek

The Halls Creek local government area is one of the council districts of Western Australia (WA) — the Kimberley and Pilbara savanna and spinifex country. The fire season here follows the dry season, and much of the north burns every year in extensive grass and savanna fires. Fire and emergency response here is led by Emergency WA (DFES). The higher-risk fire period across Western Australia is typically summer in the south (November to April) and the dry season further north, though fires can start at any time.

This page brings together satellite fire detections with the official warnings and fire-danger ratings published for WA, focused on the Halls Creek area. Satellite detections are unconfirmed — they can be a bushfire, a hazard-reduction burn or an industrial heat source — so always follow the official agency and call 000 in an emergency.
