I’m in Victoria, Australia. In 43 degree (Celsius) heat. Surrounded by hot winds and fire. It’s been this hot for three days. The main roads all around my town are closed due to fires, the farms are burning, the local pools closed. My power is out, There is smoke in the house. The CFA sirens blare every few minutes. The wind is chaotic. The air is dry. The animals are scared, we are scared. The birds outside have fled. We’re scrolling the weather and emergency app, praying for the temperature to drop, the wind to slow, the slightest bit of rain, to get the “under control” notice.
