AUTHORITIES fear two of the state's major fire fronts could unite to create a monster inferno, amid predictions the death toll could reach 300.
More than 400,000 hectres have so far been razed in fires across the state, destroying more than 1033 properties and killing at least 181 people.
Fears remain the death toll could reach 300.
Just 18km of almost inaccessible forest now separates the Kinglake fire complex and the major fire front still burning out of control in Bunyip National Park.
Northerly gusts are all that is needed to create the scenario that fire officers in the area dread most.
CFA deputy chief fire officer Steve Warrington said there were genuine concerns that warmer weather conditions could bring the two blazes together.
"If the humidity drops with a dry wind it will create the conditions we are seriously concerned about,'' Mr. Warrington said.
"The concern is quite obvious particularly when we go round to a northerly wind that the two fires could potentially join. I say potentially, we are doing a lot of work to ensure this does not occur.
Marysville was being identified as a potential "Ground Zero" for the firestorm, with authorities fearing up to 100 of its population of 519 had died. The force of the fires was likened to that of 500 atomic bombs.

Thank-you for sharing this video Dee. It's important to protect our voiceless animal brothers and sisters, because they are just as much apart of the world family as we humans are. We need to learn to respect them and help them have the future they deserve.
