Evacuation


Recommended Posts

Scot,

Is this a record breaker for drought there?  Southern California tries to burn up pretty much every year here and in the mid south we have had some really bad droughts in recent history.  I remember getting tired of the smell of smoke as a constant presence for days and weeks on end.  I feel for ya and am praying for rain.

Previous record was 51 days, we've had a couple of showers, but it has done nothing. We live in a farming community, and the speed of the grass fires caught everyone out, just so fast in the high winds. Just in our area 18 houses have been lost, countless sheep and cattle have been destroyed. Currently burnt through 40,000 hectares of farm land.

This pic is the area about 2km from us.
