Listening to the Major of Victoria talk; it's definitely the worst 'bushfire' in Australian heat. There may be as many as 112 dead. Emergency services can't even get into some of the towns yet to do a body count / houses destroyed count. :/

What's so so sad are the families who were burnt in their homes, and those who were evacuating in their cars and never made it.

Western Australia is expected to get hit pretty hard by bushfires this week; but not as badly as Victoria. We don't get anything like those fires over here.

The irony? The North part of Australia is currently devastated by floods / flash-flooding.
