Fire crews will revisit a medium-sized grass fire in Okoia on Wednesday morning to check it's under control.
The Whanganui Fire Brigade was alerted at 5.45pm on Tuesday, March 23, to the 50m x 30m vegetation fire on Longacre Rd.
A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesman said the fire
was quite deep-seated, so the Rural Fire Service would go to the site on Wednesday morning to check it was under control.
In another fire incident overnight, the Patea station was called to a controlled burn-off just north of the town around 2am.
Crews were checking to see if the burn-off on Niagara Rd was under control. The burn-off was about 500m x 10m.
