A TOTAL fire ban has been declared for parts of Victoria as temperatures soar to the mid-40s.
The Country Fire Authority (CFA) has declared the ban on Sunday for the central, north central and south west districts.
The CFA is also advising people living in areas at risk of fire to activate their bushfire plans.
A number of advice warnings are in place for fires across the state, with the most concerning being a large bushfire in the Gippsland region of Goongerah.
A watch and act message has been issued for the fast-travelling blaze, which is not yet under control.
The CFA warns it could hit the area between Bonang and Goongerah on Sunday.
Temperatures are forecast to reach 45C in the Mallee region in the state's northwest on Sunday, while temperatures will hit 44C in the Wimmera and 43C in the northern country and north central regions.
Melbourne is forecast to reach 39C.
Temperatures in parts of the state are expected to remain into the 40s on Monday before cooling into the 30s on Tuesday.
