I have a friend in Perth and I spoke to him on Christmas Day. They've not had such awful fires as they have in the east, but he said it was the hottest Christmas for years, almost up to 40 degrees. It's all a bit of a nightmare.

While it's great he's now offered help I sincerely hope if the UK is ever facing such a disaster other countries are a lot quicker in offering us help.

An astonishing photo capturing the catastrophic bushfires ravaging northern New South Wales has left the world stunned.
Zach Firth, who was on a plane flying from the Gold Coast to Melbourne on Friday night, took the photo just north of Coffs Harbour. https://www.news.com.au/technology/e...017a4610ae5fec Last edited by Ammi; 08-01-2020 at 04:58 AM. |

You know my methods

Several maps purporting to show the scale of the fires also vastly exaggerate their spread, including an artistic rendition of heat map that the artist never intended to be used as a true representation of the bushfires. "ok so the latest Bad Bushfires Map doing the rounds makes the mistake of re-rendering grids from the FIRMS map into a heat map, instead of using points and scaling correctly" https://www.theguardian.com/australi...n-false-claims Not slim trolling the forum with misinformation and fake maps ? |

Oh no
It is making me really angry. Its estimated it could be near enough a billion animals that have died in these fires. Meanwhile the main stories on the news seems to be threats of countries aiming to kill people from other countries because you know humans are the most stupid and most evil species on the planet. Because of our selfishlessness its resulted in things like climate change happening and now all these animals have suffered and died because of it and the main topic of interest? WAR! disgraceful

It rained the other day but didnt seem to help much. It is set to go even hotter tomorrow and winds and dry lightning could cause more fires and the fires currently to combine causing mega blazes

Bush fires are a natural part of Australias Ecosystem. I believe the problem with the current ones is that they have been controlled so much over the past recent years that the foliage has become so dense in places that it was a tinder box ready to explode. Rather than a direct consequence of climate change.
