Here we go again...

Oh dear. The fires have flared up to worrisome levels again. They have been going solidly for close on 4 weeks now, but have mostly been under control for the last two. Yesterday though, two major new fires started and both of them are much closer to the city than before.

The closest fire to us is in Daylesford. Still not super close, but close enough that our sky is covered in red tinged low hanging smoke clouds.

Sit tight.

Normally at this point on my drive home you can see the mountains here nice and clearly. Yesterday though, couldn't see them as they were all smoked out.

Sunrise over the neighbours roof.

Yesterday's sunrise.
