Forecasters warned that Wednesday could be the worst day since the crisis began more than a week ago.
Exhausted firefighters have been preparing for their most challenging day yet; they have been carrying out controlled burning of key areas. The ideal was to deprive fires of fuel and prevent them travelling. On Monday, they joined up two large fires to make one that is easier to manage.
