Properties under threat etc
Hehe, operator just asked the helitacs to do a "driveby" of the jandakot incident.
this all you guys got on the banjup incident ??? This thing turned into a major 88 in a matter of seconds, when that wind change came in, shit hit the fan big time! Lucky we only lost one display home and not the other 5 that were simutanously underthreat, along with every other property it ripped through.

That's what I've been thinking too - way too early in the season, and frankly alot of fires even if it were February now :?
