During a bushfire, embers will reach your home long before the flames do. Ember attacks are the most common way that houses catch fire.
This short animation explains what embers are and how they are able to travel long distances and start new fires.
You will get a sense for what it feels like to be caught in an ember attack and understand some of the reasons fire services recommend that you leave a bushfire risk area early, before a fire starts.
Leaving early is always your safest option.
