Just as I was posting on a thread a moment ago I heard the sound of planes flying very low. |

Brenda, ironically the North of WA is in the grip of a severe cyclone, wich like those recent ones in the east is very slow moving. |

just heard on the radio that it started about 5.30 this morning and is about 2 kms south of me between Australind (where I live) and Bunbury. Apparently it is well under control and the water bombers have now returned to the airport. |

Suzanne, the appropriate dept used to have prescribed burns each year to reduce the fireload in the under-storey. These took place all over the South West where there are many tree plantations. However, ue to complaints from Perth residents about smoke and haze affecting the City, these burns have been cut right back, with the consequence that the severity and frequency of bushfires in this region have intensified. |

The Shire/Council where we live have a"green" policy. I'm all for being green, but you have to be sensible with it! |
