Not as good as a picture, but you'll get the jist of it in real time. Note that Thursday (jan 10/2013) coming up is an anomaly.

Hi Rob

I have placed it to my favourites, next heat wave forcasted later in the week so I will chill out reading the weather in Canada.

Cheers

we were on high alert here today because the hot dry winds were pushing fires in every direction around Tarcutta and Humula.

Wow, fires burning across multiple states now. More homes lost in Victoria and N.S.W, and looks like it is Queenslands turn for the heatwave, starting tomorrow. Expected to be 37c in Gympie, so that means home here will be maybe 40c or more. We take Gympies figure and add 2 to 3 to that, for our area.

Police interviewing three early teen 'Papa Romeo India Charlie Kilos' about starting fires! At that age I was playing with Matchbox cars, not practicing my pyromania skills. What's happening to our youth? Not enough floggings early in life, I suspect!

Knew my time on the CB would come in handy one day!

I have just received a message from Howard. They are staying at Berrara which is fairly close to Sussex Inlet. They will be OK if the wind doesn't change.

Woke up to 11.6 deg c this morning, after the last four days it feels freezing.
I have to check Mums house today, she rang last night to say the wind had ripped a sheet of fibro off the western wall.

After some very hot days 41 and 42 over the weekend, and 27 at 6.30 am yesterday this morning is finely cooler at the moment it is 15, it was 29 at midnight. Max is away fighting a fire the other side of Yass that started near Jugiong yesterday afternoon, they are still having trouble because of the wind. This fire was across the highway near where Emma now lives. Hope all is well today.

This might be a universal theme. It seems that during the forest fire season in Northern Canada there are suspicious starts. The RCMP investigate and invariably there are suspects among the local hires for the labour jobs.
