Same up here.
The smoke is pretty bad this morning.
They are trying to stop the fires getting to the mountain behind Laurieton.
I'm worried about the bush behind me. If we get a fire in it with a northwester behind it I might be in a bit of bother.

I grew up in the bush in Nth east Victoria, snow country, but also bush fire country, so have had my share of fires and know what its like, still have family down there , so a few times during Victorian fires have had them close by

These pics are from last weekend,top one is the end of my street.It was fun watching the Sky Crane chopper flying directly over my roof going to the beach and sucking water out of the ocean with 3 seaplanes assisting in bombing those Sunday arvo fires...
That chopper is amazing. We had a fire on the property (and surrounding) where I work at in March. We had the choppers meters away from our heads, that sound is fantastic, and reassuring. I got pics and video, but I won't put them up until you guys are all safe and well, and the danger is gone. Our fire was big, but nothing compared to what you guys are going thru.

Things are pretty calm around here tonight, we've just got a lot of smoke and ash coming over the mountain from the south.
There are many people worse off than where I am.
Wauchope Showground is an animal fire refuge and had over 300 horses there this morning and many cattle, sheep, chooks and goats. The local Co-op donated a stack of portable yards for the cattle and they were on the radio calling for blokes to go over and help put them up. It's a part of bush fires that we never think about.
They made the sensible decision and cancelled the WRC in Coffs today.

As Al said, waiting for the southerly which could change things. As fas i know, the fire hasn't crossed the hwy into Yarrahapini . Smoke has moved south and Macksville seems good despite warnings.

We were sir posed to fly back to work yesterday, but due to a lot of people living in south east Qld And Nth NSW they have told everyone to stay home another week to make sure their family and houses are safe
My offsider lives in Near Ballina so I hope he’s ok 🤞🙏
But As I always say
Stay safe all
