HOMES on the NSW mid north coast are again under threat from bushfire, with residents told to stay put and take cover.

An emergency warning is in place for a bushfire near Shallow Bay and Coomba Park in Great Lakes, the NSW Rural Fire Service (RFNSW) said on Friday.

The fire, which began in Shallow Bay on Thursday, is said to be burning erratically and causing spot fires which could threaten nearby homes.

There are 50 homes in the area, according to the RFS.

Residents in Shallow Bay's north have been advised to take cover as the fire moves north west.

On Friday, firefighters were trying to strengthen containment lines around bushfires in Great Lakes and Taree, which were fanned by strong winds and high temperatures a day earlier.

"Crews will be getting onto these fires and vigorously attempting to control and contain them and black them out," Stuart O'Keefe from the Rural Fire Service told ABC radio.
