    It's not a pleasant Australia Day to be celebrating down here in Victoria with a number of going fires still occurring right across the state. Significant risk exists coming into an extreme fire weather day like today in a normal setting, that's compounded when we enter that weather pattern with large fires right across the state that are stretching resources.
