I did a bit of research and i think there has been 9 fire bans already in SA, Surely this must be nearly a record!
I also noticed today the FDI reached 110 at oodnadatta - After being on holidays up through the far north and to Alice Springs the outback is once again a ticking time bomb waiting for a spark.
Anyone else with observations from around the state? seems the winter/spring season has shut of very early this year and maybe the BOM are right we are heading in to a drier period.
