We've had three consecutive days in Victoria where temperatures have stayed up in the low 40s (˚C). The extreme heat, strong winds and tinder-dry grasslands and Eucalypt forests have created a catastrophic set of circumstances for bushfires to start.
Climate change and unpredictable weather events are making each year worse in Australia as fires, floods, droughts, cyclones and storms wreak havoc. Presently, hundreds of firefighters are flat out out trying to contain many large out-of-control fires as night falls on Victoria, the most concerning fire is the enormous Longwood fire, which has been threatening several townships as it spreads through central Victoria.
Firefighters and emergency services are concerned as a change in wind direction expected this Friday evening could hamper their efforts, as it pushes the blazes into new directions. The Country Fire Authority says cooler, calmer conditions might allow firefighters to assess the impact of multiple blazes in the coming days.
Last week, Rupam Sarma in India posted a beautiful photo evoking a wonderful atmosphere of carefree childhood days. Please visit his blog for more great shots.
Yes, I heard about the terrible fires ravaging part of Australia, as unfortunately often happens now every summer. I hope things will improve and that the fire-fighters will manage to get them under control. And that the temperatures will drop a little.
