Yer I'm in FTG and the sky wasn't to bad but it was grey as 12 trucks where put out for the fires in the quarry I believe, crazy stuff

At least the cool change has come through hopefully that'l help the Fire Fighters, Good on them Btw

I was going to Nhill today (west of Horsham) and they had the highway blocked off. Houses, golf club and a fire truck lost just south of Horsham.

I don't remember a worse day for fires, in this heat with that wind.
Good luck to all the fireys that will be in for a big night

I can remember ash Wednesday much much worse. But it's been one of the big ones today that's for sure. No fires or high heat here in the Deep South West we caught the tail of the Cyclone in WA in the early hours of the morning and it's not been over 30 all day (had some wind and lightning and rain at about 4am but that was all)

It was hard to tell on my drive today what was smoke and what was dust, but it certainly made for a stressful trip.

To everyone else on the road: Turn on your damn headlights when there is low visibility!!

this was around 4.30, the suns behind that cloud of smoke.
