Been a bit warm and windy here.
44.4 combined with 40km/hr n/w wind, humidity of 8 % and a drought.
All the ingredients for a CQ version of a firestorm and we got it.
Cooler at the moment.
Couple of guys caught lighting fires here. A 26 and a 27 year old. Different instances.
Charged with arson so coppers don't believe it was simply d...heads burning off when they shouldn't. Must have been some intent involved.
Real story will out soon when they front court. Doubt that there'll be bail.
Under new arson penalties I think the max in these circumstances is 14 years slammer if proved.
