Fickle fate

A lot of people are worried about bushfire danger in New South Wales today, with Sydney expecting 43 degrees and high winds. 

Of the recent bushfire experience in Tasmania, I thought the following photo of Dunalley was remarkable:

I mean, this just doesn't match my mental image of a town likely to burn down due to bushfire:  it looks just like a bit of seaside suburbia with an unremarkable number of trees in backyards or nearby.  And, of course, there is plenty of water nearby.   (Fighting large scale fires with sea water probably doesn't do a lot for any surviving garden, I guess.)

Anyway, good luck New South Wales.
