just heard from my parents in woodside, gippsland that they have the CFA at their house, as the fire has started heading towards them, and they can see the smoke in the sky nearby. they were going to come home tonight, but cant due to the road back to melbourne being closed.

i flew over some of the fires today. saw heaps of burnt out trees, a lot of small patchy fires, and a big cloud of smoke over what i think was marysville

Im guessing there in the same boat as us, we are watching the Won Wron fire with a very close eye. It keeps breaking containment lines, and the southerly wind isnt helping.

It was contained again at 6:06 tonight and currently remains contained.
Best of luck to your family mate, i havent checked the road closures lately, but they should be able to get to melbourne via sale, My sister just left Sale to head to stradbroke/longford and the road is open, and the highway from Sale to Melbourne is open.

[EDIT] Sorry, just checked, and the south gippy is closed between Yarram and Stradbroke [/EDIT]

I see quite a few VN-VS sitting there on burnt grass brand new for some reason? with burnt cars all around them. Not the time for worrying about cars I know but I bet several hundred muscle cars have been lost

Why no questions? They are not your pictures. If you are claiming they are let me know so I can report you for stock theft.

Seriously. ****ing hell.


Weedo, I hope it all turns out ok mate.
