Yes there was one down near our little nuclear reactor in southern sydney. very scary indeed.
The weather bureau just added a new colour to the temp chart - it went from yellow to orange to red to black and stopped at 50 degrees. Now there's is purple for 50-54 (thats 129F if I've got the maths right).
I reckon the punishment should fit the crime. FOr any arsonists and firebugs out there nothing less than a Joan of Arc type burning at the stake should do.
