First floods, then dust storms, now fire - NSW North Coast braces for further troubles in 2009


Brooms Head fire on the Clarence Coast

By late yesterday afternoon, there were 18 fires still listed by the NSW Rural Fire Service on the North Coast - thirteen of these in the Clarence Valley, two in the Kyogle area, one in the Coffs Harbour district and one each in the Richmond and Tweed Valleys.

Heartfelt thanks to those Firies on the frontline and other emergency service personnel. They may be very busy this summer.
