Storms and fires sweep through Emerald district
Sunday and night storms drenched the Emerald area with heavy rain and gales. Bush fires burned 300 acres at Withersfield and 400 at The Firs, with a Rural Fire Brigade formed under W. A. White. Emerald's water supply faced power limits, delaying pumps from 6 pm to 6 am, while consultations aim to improve capacity. Emerald Council approved small rate increases and sought a higher overdraft at Bank of NSW.
