Bloody hell! Sometimes it drives me nuts being an expat (not that there is anything I could do against a raging bushfire of course......) and being so far away. Luckily for me, my family is in Queensland, but it still tears me up. Thanks for the link to the aussie Red Cross. I will donate right away.
50 deg C?? That is insanity.
Radiant heat is crazy; between people getting cooked in their cars, and the family with their cats and dogs running around the cricket oval trying to avoid the heat and tongues of flame as the wind changed, I can't even imagine how bad it must be.
Well, here's hoping any arsonists got a little taste of their own medicine. Of course there are always the yobbos who toss the lit cigs out of their cars as they race down the motorway, instead of putting them out in an ashtray. Idiots.
