The residents of the Sunshine Coast township of Teewah are returning home this morning, following a bushfire threat which caused them to evacuate the area last night.
The fire in the tiny community north of Noosa, flared late on Tuesday night, leaving fire crews battling to control the blaze.
The fire is now burning on the eastern side of the Noosa River, west of Teewah, and has been downgraded to an “advice-level” threat.
