NSW firies concede tens of homes lost

IT will be miraculous if no lives are lost to bushfires on a difficult and dangerous night ahead in NSW, Premier Barry O'Farrell says.

Hundreds of properties are feared destroyed in bushfires around the state, with up to 30 known to be lost at Springwood, in the Blue Mountains.

Mr O'Farrell said that despite a change cooling the weather where fires were burning, the danger was not over.

"It has been a difficult, damaging and dangerous day and these conditions are not going to be over quickly," he told reporters at Rural Fire Service headquarters in Sydney on Thursday.

"Weather conditions are changing, it will take some days until we see the end of these fires.

"And I suspect that if we get through that without the loss of life we should thank God for miracles."

More than 90 fires were burning across NSW at 6.30pm (AEDT), 36 of them uncontained.

Six fires were of most concern, burning aggressively and causing destruction, RFS commissioner Shane Fitzsimmons said.

"We have many hours yet still to run," he said.

"It is going to be a long, difficult and dangerous evening ahead for firefighters and obviously the communities in the path of these fires."
