ORIGINAL: Rainfire Gooooooood morning, my favouritest bunch o' pervs!! It's so warm and cozy outside that I thinks I may break out the shorts today! Yesterday, it was so warm that most of our snow melted. Heya, Wanders or Angel, are they publishing a list of affected towns and the people? Ummmmm, I knew the Healesville area quite well, had mates there. How's the sanctuary? Has it been affected? I was there in 82 and 83 so I have a pretty darn good idea what's going on.... Is there a map showing specific locations of the fires? Hi Rain, Healsville has been listed as in danger tonight, as you know the whole region is/was beautiful Australian bushland, it was a ghastly combination of record breaking heatwave almost 2 weeks, the fuel load is crisp and dry, and really fast winds, I have heard of embers 10-15 kms before the fire front. Unfortunately a few people with no social conscience lighting fires. I am pleased to see the arsonists will be charged with murder. It is a catastrophe and I think most Victorians are quite depressed about the events and the loss of so many lives and homes.
