It's very shocking! Channel 9 had news features on the Bush Fires in the early days and when the residents were allowed back to Marysville, they followed this couple to their house to discover they had lost everything.
The windscreen of the man's car had MELTED and you could see some melted glass on what was left of the steering wheel!
The windows of the car doors had also melted onto the ground! And the alloy of the wheels had melted onto the ground!
It was superheated temperatures!! ![]()

Some people jumped into the swimming pool and thought it might help but the water boiled as soon as the fires came close.
You know what?? I am not sure if the blueberry farm we went is still there. Because Narbethong where the blueberry farm is, has been affected by the bush fires too. ![]()

Was that the farm with the little rose garden near the main building?
The CFA were saying that they used to advise people to hide in their homes during a bushfire and wait till it passes but now, they are revising this guideline. They also came up with plans to build fire-proof houses. I think they should have done that long ago.

Mel's bushfire is horrible. It's akin some nightmare in hell... fee sad for those who are losing their families, their homes.
And the best thing is, the arsonists are under protection. Gosh... what were those people thinking! It's their neighbours, their countrymen, their homeland.. and they're reducing it to ashes.
It was reported that Sydney is having floods, I think the world has gone topsy turvey

Gosh, it's hot today!
I lugged my 7kg Mink Blanket out to the backyard to hang on the line to dry and came back sweating! ![]()
And tamade... I did an 'experiment' of sorts, spraying an aphid-ridden ivy-like climber plant generously with my garden insecticide to see if it actually works, and someone had snipped off the pesky plant before I could inspect the aphid corpses.
Haiz...
Poor hunny must have gotten busy at work. Or she's talking to her colleagues about the bushfires...

You know, with Summer + my sudden regular diet of local fare with lots of sambal, my pimple outbreak is getting worse!
I went with a friend to BigW last night to search for Neutrogena pimple products but somehow, the pimple ointment were out of stock!
I feel like I'm 'competing' with the teens for pimple products now! ![]()
Wow... the disasters that happened in China, India, Wall Street, and Australia have all been prophesied back in 1998! ![]()
And soon, there will be a drought in the Middle East so bad that the nations will fight over water. And the United Nations will split over the Middle East! ![]()
Next, disasters will befall Europe. Earthquakes in places that had never been earthquake-prone. Devastating floods. And the Eiffel Tower of Paris will be no more...
If all these come to pass, I will shiver and tremble with fear, because it has all been predicted!
Where did you read all that?

If you want to get updated Australia news, it's best to get it from the Australia source like the news link below:
www.theage.com.au (the bottom page has other links to news on other states. The age is mainly Victoria news)
Many people from overseas don't seem to know the states and places in Australia so can easily mislead others. Like the bush fires actually happened in Victoria not Melbourne, as clarified by someone in another subforums. Melbourne is only the capital city of Victoria, Sydney the capital city of NSW, Brisbane the capital city of Queensland, Adelaide the capital city of South Australia etc....
