You can watch the moment the Leongatha Fire Brigade broke into dance, elated with the rainfall.
The emotional clip shows the rescue workers unable to wipe the grins from their faces after more than a month of battling it out on the front line in an attempt to curb the flames ravaging the dry plains across the country.
They shared the video to social media, writing:
This is our crew in Rollands Plains in NSW at the moment with some very happy locals who have been on edge for over a month.This local has also been helping cook meals for all the Fire Fighters and locals that have been forced from their homes for the past two weeks.
Alongside the firefighters is a woman who has been cooking meals for firefighters and locals who had been kicked out of their homes as a result of the treacherous flames.
