Tomorrow’s weather forecast is for 35 degrees celcius where I am (95 Fahrenheit) and strong winds. We’re right in the firing line unfortunately.

Horrible news bananaman, I'm very sorry to hear it

I hate to be the gloomy Gus but I do hope you packed a few bags and gassed up the car just in case a quick exit is in order
And look over the map to be sure of your route (keep in mind that certain areas will likely be bottlenecks and traffic will slow down)
Best of luck Amigo, please keep us up to date

Thanks buddy. My house is right next to the beach so we should be safe, but the area I live in (Illawarra) has one of the highest warnings so things could get nasty in the surrounds. All we can do is hope for the best 🤞

Might have to spend the night in the surf ;)

Oh no. Hope you make it through okay.

Thanks 🙏

Good luck, friend.
To cool you off a little - Fahrenheit, tonight I'll be in the teens and tomorrow night below 0!!

Thanks Cruz, send those cooler currents down this way!

Very scary. Sorry to hear this. Good luck and be safe.

It is a bit scary, especially for my Mum who lives in a small town surrounded by bushlands. Thanks for the kind words x

thanks hownos

A southerly buster is on its way.

reply

Yeah I think that's the concern though, that the winds forecast to come through just before the change will make things a whole lot worse. Melbourne looks like the place to be today, you guys should be safe with the cooler weather and rain down there.

Victoria has had a wet winter so the place is green and damp. Apparently the birds have been coming down here to escape the harsh conditions you have in the north.

Stay safe man! Hope all is well.

So far so good, thanks mojo :)
