A code red catastrophic fire alert has been declared for much of south Australia, with dangerous bushfire weather conditions to intensify today with temps of 41C.
The code red alert is the highest available under Australia's new national bushfire rating system, and has been declared for the northern country and northeast regions.
In stark contrast to the bushfire warnings around Australia, Queensland's central west is still on flood alert.
The weather bureau has issued fresh flood warnings, as water levels keep rising.Some towns will be cut off for at least 10 days, with the rivers in full flood. Helicopters are delivering essential supplies to isolated properties.
This is in stark contrast to the very cold weather of Europe and the USA....certainly makes you think about climate change and more extreme weather.
