Rain stops bushfires in their tracksBy Julie Tullberg

A DRAMATIC change of weather has stopped three bushfires in their
tracks as they approached almost 100 people trapped on Victoria's Mount
Buller.
A wind shift, with gusts almost dying out, has stopped fire raging
towards Mt Buller's skifields this morning.
About 50 firefighters are backing up resort teams to help save valuable
assets on the mountain top, which includes trendy ski resorts amid bare
ski slopes hungry for a white Christmas.
A Department of Sustainability and Environment (DSE) spokeswoman said
about 30 alpine resort staff had chosen to defend assets and were
"stuck" on the mountain.
Yesterday, fire authorities closed Mount Buller Road to all traffic as
several burnt-out trees fell across the roads, blocking access to the
mountain top.
And winds up to 120km/h fanned three fires approaching Mt Buller's
summit before the weather changed.
When up to 10mm of rain fell at Mt Buller, resort staff were counting
their blessings, knowing their fortunes had changed.
"The winds aren't strong any more," the spokeswoman said. "The smoke
has cleared because of a wind shift to the southwest. The fire activity
is very quiet."
Fir fighters are patrolling the danger zone, watching out for embers
and fresh outbreaks.
But the spokeswoman said the more favourable conditions meant crews
could try to clear the alpine road, ensuring all Buller personnel could
leave the mountain safely.
Fire crews have had to escape the danger zone on helicopters as Mt
Buller service staff support the weary firefighters.
Alerts for Howqua River Road, Sheepyard Flat, Tobacco Flat, Howqua
Hills and Sawmill Settlement have been withdrawn.
"The Mansfield incident management team will review risks overnight in
the vicinity of this fire, and provide further advice in the morning,"
North East Fire Centre co-ordinator Tom Sloan said.
"Whilst rain fell throughout much of the Mansfield district, there were
some areas that have still only received very low rain falls.
"Residents in the Woods Point area will need to remain alert to the
fact that, although the fire danger is now relatively low, the fire in
the vicinity of the town will continue to create a threat that must be
carefully monitored over the next few days."
Walhalla has enjoyed good rainfall, helping a reduced fire risk to
their properties.
But residents are advised the road is still closed.
The north Gippsland goldmining town of Walhalla surrendered its
historic three-span bridge to fire yesterday.
The township, renowned for its historic railway and goldmining
heritage, has been under ember attack for days, and residents will be
forced to seek refuge in an old goldmine if the flames ravage their
town.
The fires are expected to devastate the tourist trade in Walhalla.
Bushfires in Victoria's Gippsland area have burnt more than 830,000ha
of bush, destroyed more than 30 homes and taken one life.
