Windspeeds may exceed 25km\/h in some areas over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Forest fire risk is likely to be increased by expected high levels of public and visitor activity in fire prone areas during the weekend.\u00a0 High vigilance is warranted in areas with intensive public access and recreational use.
