Stop Press on one particular fire in Australia:-
Quote:
Thousands of people are trapped on a beach in southeast Australia after fleeing their homes as strong winds brought wildfires and smoke so thick that the morning sky turned dark.
On Tuesday, about 4,000 residents and visitors were forced to leave their homes and vacation accommodation in Mallacoota, in the state of Victoria, authorities said, as wildfires rage across the region. "There's no way in or out," Mallacoota resident Jason Selmes told CNN
^ The sky in Mallacoota was pitch black even at 10 a.m. on Tuesday. ^ |
You don't have to be a news junkie to've heard a fair number of officials issuing public safety warnings on tv, but I haven't heard many stated as baldly as this one:-

"It is too late to leave," said Victoria Emergency, warning that Mallacoota residents were "in danger ... and need to act immediately to survive."
