AN out-of-control bushfire threatening rural homes in Victoria's west has slowed down.

AN emergency warning for Glenisla Crossing and Cherrypool has been downgraded to a watch and act alert.

The fire started in the Black Ranges State Park in Victoria's west and broke through a containment line on its southern flank early on Wednesday.Updated advice from the Country Fire Authority said the fire was still travelling toward the communities, but its progress had slowed."Staying close to shelter is the safest option, in case conditions change again suddenly," the alert said.Earlier, State Incident Control Centre spokesman Darren McKenzie said the conditions made the fire's path difficult to predict."Earlier today we had a small breakout on the southern flank of the fire," Mr McKenzie told AAP on Wednesday."Small spot fires, difficult terrain and dense eucalypt trees are making it difficult for firefighters to contain the blaze."The weather bureau says Victoria and SA can expect rain on Thursday and Friday, with the chance of heavier falls through the weekend.Up to 30mm is forecast to fall across the southeast of the country on Thursday.
