Its up to 178 now, they have predicted it will go over 200 maybe 300. I feel sick by the sheer size of it we are getting the smoke haze here in Tassie, firefighters and eqipment from here South Australia, NSW, helping out, many people not insured. one guy left his house with only the clothes he was wearing, he is worried that he cant identify himself, all his documents, passport, drving licence, credit cards , wallet, photos, everything went up with the house. The stories coming out is unbeievable. We are out in the bush and surounded by forests, its as dry as hell. I made sure we have a fire break around the house just in case. it was 42c last week, it was a bit stressy to say the least.
