Bill S from Adelaide BS: Bushfires in Australia - Feb 2009-2020 (489* d) RE: BS: Bushfires in Australia - Feb 2009 07 Feb 09


Hi Sandra
I'm in Melbourne and watched a fire break out downhill from my house. It took 11 fire engines and 2 helicopters to control it before the wind change that would have brought it in my direction. I've been on full alert all day. The railway and highway are still closed.
Some devastating bushfires farther out are still burning. We had 46.7 today, a record for Melbourne, with gale force winds.
Ironically, I have a house guest stranded in Cairns because of the floods, he just got out of England to beat the snow.
The CFA Firies round here are all volunteers and total heroes.
Wassail
