A grassfire in NSW's central west has been downgraded to an "advice" alert with crews managing to slow its spread.

An emergency warning was issued earlier on Friday for the fire west of Mandurama and moving east towards Lyndhurst and Belubula.

But "with conditions easing firefighters are now slowing the spread of the fire", the RFS said about 5pm.

"If you are in the area of Lyndhurst and Mandurama continue to monitor conditions and follow direction from firefighters in the area," the alert said.

"Be prepared to enact your bushfire survival plan."

An emergency warning remains for a fire at Carwoola near Queanbeyan as hot and windy conditions fuel the blaze.
