Bushfires in Australia.

I copied this from the adv rider Oz section...check out the photos of the bike and smoke.
Remember these pics were taken in broad daylight. :shock:

I saw the same thing in the Shire here in 94.
Flame hundreds of meters high, fireballs igniting trees and houses in seconds.
A firestorm.

Places I rode when I lived in Tasmania are also on fire.

Everything is tinder dry in most of Oz this year, we've hardly had any rain.
Going to be a long, dangerous summer for many people.

Most of the fires have started from lightning strikes.
Had a massive lightning storm at my place yesterday afternoon, one huge bolt went into the ocean just in front of my garden, I actually heard the water sizzle and there was a weird buzzsaw like noise.
