The temperature forecast for next Monday by Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology is so unprecedented – over 52C – that it has had to add a new colour to the top of its scale, a incandescent purple.

Blessings all,
Yes , it is a trying time for many. We are in a fire risk area , having had two large grass fires across the road from us. We are ready to evacuate if necessary. Liz and In are file , but remember in your prayers the many Australians severely effected by the bushfires, those who mourn loved ones who died in the blaze, those who have lost everthing. Tomorrow is going to be another crisis day. Temperatures in the state of NSW are unusually high, i.e. around 47c.
May God bless us all and keep us safe.

Fatheredbakker not helped by drongos deliberately lighting fires. When my son was a volunteer in the CFA down here in Victoria,he and an off duty detective, who had come to check on the fire in his street,caught a alleged firebug.My son fought Black Saturday fires and he has never forgotten it-he is even on YOU TUBE at the Upper Ferntree Gully fires
God Bless all of our firies-paid and volunteer- and for all support services that will be stretched -Church and secular . Thank God for the Salvoes,St Vinnies and the Red Cross as they help the bereft .
