"In the event of continued strong and dry winds, it is likely that the severity of the fire will continue to increase," said Shane Fitzsimmons of NSW RFS.
Answering to CNN, Alex Beckton, a resident of the Old Bar town on the NSW coast, said he evacuated the family to a local surfing club early Saturday morning after spraying water on the house with hi. Hope fire will not spread fire.
"Last night we saw the sky turn orange. I think many people could not sleep because they had to stay up and watch the situation all night," said Beckton.
According to Australia's Nine News, the fires forced NSW authorities to close many roads and highways, and advised people not to move if it was not absolutely necessary.
About 50 other fires are also raging in neighboring Queensland, with people in some areas being asked to evacuate as the fire threatens residential areas.

Scientists warn that the upcoming Australian bushfire season will be longer and more intense due to the effects of climate change.
Earlier, Australian authorities were worried about wildfires ahead of the hottest months to come. It is confirmed that 2017 and 2018 are the 3rd and 4th hottest years in Australian meteorological history.
Australia's climate report 2018 states that climate change has led to catastrophic heat waves as well as increased intensity of natural disasters, such as drought.
Even if global temperatures rise within 2 degrees Celsius of pre-industrial levels as reached by the 2015 Paris agreement, scientists believe Australia will still face more dangerous disasters.
