No one here has seen it as bad as this. I receive air quality updates and it’s been classed as hazardous in Sydney most days for weeks now. It’s pretty unpleasant!
Hot and very windy again today. A Megafire burning to the North-West of Sydney and fires up and down the coast. The sun is a brilliant colour of red in the afternoon and there is a steady fall of fine ash over Sydney. No rain on the forecast and the fires are creating their own weather with electrical storms that are starting new fires. Fair to say its full on surrounding Sydney at the moment. Combined with the dust being blown in from the bush due to the drought, its impossible to keep a car clean and not good to breath, for car and driver alike. On a bad day visibility is only 100 metres or so. Haven't seen anything like this, or lasting so long. Usually rain would arrive and put these things out or slow them down. Other than that, we are one up against the Kiwis in the cricket and Christmas day is going to be a comfortable 26 degrees. Plus, Sydney is at level 2 water restrictions, can only wash a car with a bucket and sponge, no hoses. First world problem that one but the car does look so much better when clean. Have a great Christmas everyone.
