Default Coonabarabran fires 2013

I have been in the area helping restore power to fire affected areas . Over 40 houses and well over 50 larger sheds lost so far with 2 fires still burning. Over 40000 hectares burnt. On Sunday the fire front was travelling up to 250metres per minute forced by 45+ deg ambient temps and 80kmh wind. The miraculous thing is no one has been killed. Stock and wildlife have not faired well though
