The Department of Fire and Emergency Services will be dealing with hot and windy weather conditions, as the Wooroloo bushfire enters its third day.

There are concerns the wind gust could reach up to 70km/h and push the fire towards Shady Hills Estate in Bullsbrook after 12pm. 

The fire was reported in Wooroloo on Monday afternoon and has since destroyed 71 homes and tore through more than 9000 hectares of land.

An emergency warning remains in place for parts of the Shire or Mundaring, Chittering, Northam and the City of Swan.

Over 220 career and volunteer firefighters will continue their efforts to get the blaze under control today.
