Smoke fills the sky

High St, New Norfolk, around 8pm.
SMOKE from the dozens of bushfires around the state has filled the skies over the Derwent Valley tonight.

A dense cloud of smoke hung thick and low over New Norfolk from the early evening.

The large bushfire near Strathgordon remains uncontrolled, including a long stretch of Gordon River Rd where it is burning on both sides of the road.

As of 10.30pm Gordon River Rd remains closed from Maydena to Strathgordon, as does Scotts Peak Rd. Check for updates here.
