Particularly those who are on the South Coast (Illawarra and Shoalhaven), Victoria...heck, I think our entire country is on fire at the moment. I'm in the Illawarra and although we haven't had any major fires here, we are surrounded by smoke and haze..there are some parts where you can't even see the rode! We've been hearing sirens for most of the morning...all heading further south.
Stay safe everyone! This is such a scary time.
Am further up the coast up in SEQ so defs not as bad as you folks down in NSW and Vic, but oof it's hot T__T luckily the haze isn't so bad here (it's clear for the most part) but we did have some days over Nov and Dec where you couldn't even see clearly down the street.
If I owned clothes that were any other colour than black it might help but I guess I must suffer my stupidity :P
Hope y'all down in the Sydney area are staying safe and staying cool though :(
