The Woolundunga fire is burning in a north easterly direction in scrub near Gunyah Road, Dean Searle’s Road, McColl Road and the Quorn to Wilmington Road.
The Country Fire Service says that although the threat to people’s safety has reduced, they should be aware that some risks are still present.
It’s encouraging people to check regularly for fires or embers, particularly in roof spaces, under decks, raised floors and in gutters. People should also take care in the fire area over the next few days.
CFS Regional Coordinator Bluey Devine said Thursday afternoon, that changing wind conditions were making the job of fire fighters more difficult.
“It’s not extreme fire danger weather and the weather will probably deteriorate in the next 48 hours, which will provide a challenge for us,” Mr Devine told ABC Radio.
“We’ve got volunteers from other parts of the state assisting us… the scenario for this fire, I would expect, is that if we get it under control in the next two or three days, we probably have another two weeks, at least, trying to mop up and make the area safe.”
The fire which has been burning since Wednesday midday, had burnt more than 2,500 hectares of scrubland by Thursday afternoon.
It has threatened a number of homes but no lives or homes have currently been lost.
CFS was concerned a wind change on Saturday could push an out-of-control bushfire towards the township of Wilmington.
Brenton Eden from the CFS said inaccessible terrain combined with windy conditions in making it difficult to fight for more than 100 firefighters.
“In the valleys associated with this area of the Flinders Ranges, the prevailing winds are driving the fire behaviour in nearly 360 degrees of direction.”
Fire bombers and aerial observation aircraft are aiding efforts on the ground.
The CFS said the fire has the potential to burn for several more days and are warning those not in immediate danger now to make sure they have their bushfire plans in place.
