Meanwhile, a community information message was issued yesterday afternoon for a stubble fire at Nowie.
Fire crews were called to the blaze, but residents around areas including Swan Hill and Pira were advised of smoke in the area.
The blaze has since been declared safe and the message has been lifted.
Stubble fires happen when grains such as rice and wheat have been harvested.
