Devastation - South Coast NSW Fires

Currently standing on the decking of my weekender at Narrawallee looking north at Conjola 7km away and all I can see is a huge orange glow from the out of control fires that have ravaged the area over the last 3 days
Apparently 89 properties have been lost and the fire is burning towards the coast in a north east direction
Luckily we have an inlet separating our community from Conjola but we are not out of the woods by no means , especially if the wind changes direction over the next two days
My thoughts go out to the community of Conjola and surrounding areas
Keep safe everyone in our region and don’t wait around, leave straight away if you feel threatened by fire
The RFS may open the Princes Highway may be opened by the morning in a restricted manner
Keep safe !!

Hope everyone stays safe be it in the bushfire zones or on the road at this time of year or wherever they are....

Wish we could send some tropical rain your way, wish I could do more than hope (or pray or whatever)...

Take care Martin, hopefully these fires will be contained through the efforts of some incredibly brave & selfless people & hopefully all of you will get some much needed rain to quench the fires...

Cheers
