Do it indoors if at all. The fire ban applies to outdoor fires that might get out of control. Look up Black Saturday fires in Victoria and NSW. And Ash Wednesday. And Black Friday. These are just the ones with a lot of publicity. There are plenty of others. The bush burns in weather like this given the slightest excuse - deal with it. Do you want to be responsible for multiple deaths and a whole lotta destruction? If so, you're on your own, as every occult practitioner and emergency services worker will be sending curses your way. I might even be one of them.
