Thanks guys! It's still quite hard to digest the photos & stories coming from Vic.
From some of the comments on news sites ..I don't think folks overseas really understand what bushfire season is like down here. That coupled with the drought, wind & heat makes for a horrible situation.
Yes FESA (Fire & Em serv australia), CFA (country fire authority), DSE (dept of sust & env) all had contingency plans. There was a total fire ban in place. The fire was just too intense & fast.
Don't forget about the flooding in Qld!!!
