Fire and Wind
We're currently experiencing strong winds, and the fire front is just 30km from here.
30km used to seem like a lot, you know. Until those poor peoples lives were wiped out by a fire storm that travelled 25km in 15 minutes.
I doubt that a fire would travel that FAST to get here, but certainly that far. Easily that far. And in this wind, certainly not slow.
Frightened. Worried.
Thinking I should have packed Nicky in the car and taken her to my parents house where it is absolutely safe and out of the zone. She's in bed now.
Maybe I'm overreacting. I'm probably overreacting.
They've been strengthening containment lines all day... but I don't know. This wind.
The wind is scaring the hell out of me.
