"Hundreds of homes destroyed"...tragic, just hope that no lives are lost. October...sheesh. Multiple fires from one end of the Blue Mountains to the other, Newcastle and Port Stephens and who knows where else.
Was seeing burnt leaves falling outside about an hour ago, then my brother rang saying he had had to divert on his trip home from Sydney to the Southern highlands as the Hume highway is now closed. He is hoping to get home via Nowra, but the TV news says there is fire there too. Yes, I'm concerned for his safety.
