If you live in rural Victoria, Australia you live with the threat of bushfire attack. The Country Fire Authority (CFA) provide near real-time information on all active fires and events via their website (http://www.cfa.vic.gov.au/incidents/incident_su...).
While the information is great to have, it's hard to find the information you need, particularly when there's a lot of activity.
This greasemonkey script lets you focus on your region by hiding all the other fire information for the other regions, removing all the screen clutter, hiding false-alarms and auto-reloading every few minutes. There's a few options for you to tweak with too.
Note that although I've done my best to ensure the script works properly, you use it with the understanding that no warranty is provided or assumed. Use at your own risk.
