When the wind blows like it is this morning- I am worried.
When the day gets hot again- I am worried.

This fire season wasn't just predicted last year. It was predicted, almost to the day, in the Garnaut Report *twelve years ago*. This is why we have experts prepare reports on issues of national security. So we can be forewarned. So we can act.
Garnaut Report in 2008 - “Fire seasons will start earlier, end later and be more intense. This effect increases over time but should be directly observable by 2020.”
