Warnings remain for active Victorian fires

A bushfire in Victoria's devastated east is burning at the highest warning level while another blaze has been downgraded.

An emergency warning remains in place for the fire at Cape Conran, which is travelling west towards Marlo in the state's far east.

An out-of-control fire burning north towards Bendoc, near the Victoria-NSW border, has been downgraded to a watch and act warning.

Victoria's hot and humid conditions had also prompted a thunderstorm warning for the Mornington Peninsula and Phillip Island, which has since been removed.
