"It's perfect burning weather other than the fact we don't have any clearing winds," Ben Shepherd, senior spokesman for the NSW Rural Fire Service, said on Saturday. "It's frustrating."
Even with the restraints on fires, the Office of Environment and Heritage said on Saturday air quality "particularly visibility and particle concentrations, may be impacted due to planned hazard reduction burns". Some haze is also possible on Sunday.Gabrielle Woodhouse, a duty forecaster at the Bureau of Meteorology, said temperatures over the coming week would continue to be on the warm side, running about 5 degrees above the norm for May.
Conditions are favouring temperature inversions to set up over the Sydney Basin, with warm air aloft serving as a lid to keep smoke from rising. The lack of horizontal winds means the pollution is not being pushed out to sea. Inspector Shepherd said authorities had planned to complete 56 per cent of their annual prescribed burning target for the year in autumn alone.
