Not funny as the fire started spotting...appears spotting 250 - 300 metres from the main fire....

Very scary fire behaviour this early in the season....

To true, add another 10Deg in temp and another 15-20kms of wind, its all the signs of a very ugly summer for the state.

We were there before the fire took off.....there was a sudden wind shift (and a Southerly at that) and within about 5 minutes it started crowning...

Photos will be on the Promo site today - www.fire-brigade.asn.au
