It looks ominous here at the moment, not much precipitation. I'm glad I wasn't travelling through Millicent. I hope all the locals are alright and the road is clear for me to get to Cape Jaffa.
few spots of rain here atm
hey Marj the rains are here
now its really raining
Edit getting good rain atm hope the firies get it too
appears that 5 fires north of Melb have been deliberately lit, rrrrrrrrssoles
what makes theses morons tick, thats all they are is a moron
I saw 6-7 fire truck hurtling down the Calder towards Sunbury today about 8-8:30. Hope everything's ok.
A couple of weeks ago both sides of town were burning here, one fire alone caused the death of 125 sheep and numerous sheds and fences.
The following week on the front page of the local rag there is a picture of the blaze with a caption about it being deliberately lit by a fire "bug".
How endearing the word "bug" seems...It should read arsonist or c*!t. We really need tough laws on arsonist and name and shame/beat.
I just got another callout, there is smoke billowing from the bush near home and I am at work dammit!
fingers crossed it all good
Should be, it's VERY humid, makes it hard for a fire to burn. Plus everything is still wet from the rain last night.
I would not be surprised if it is steam rather than smoke that somebody has called in.
Ill let you know when rain/hail hits here, trying to find a plan so my Patrol wont get wrecked by hail
going out later when it due not happy
