Communities on the Victoria-NSW border have been warned to seek shelter as the massive Green Valley blaze flared under 90-kilometre-an-hour gusts.

The emergency warning issued on Friday evening was for properties at Lankeys Creek and between Jingellic and Welaregang.

"Telecommunication outages in the area may result in the inability to contact Triple Zero, receive emergency alert telephone messages or access the internet," the warning reads.
