Queensland Australia Brush Fire Emergency Escalated at Once in Over Half Century

Posted by HCN on Tuesday, October 31, 2023,
A brush fire pops up out of the blue and consumes a house and a car in a matter of minutes, over and over again. Phenomenon. Seemingly unstoppable. Hopes for sufficient rain, maybe in vain. Firefighters are worn out. Airplanes flying overhead trying to put the fire out dumping far suppressant elements.

What is the solution?
It might be to dump enough of the needed water, fire retardants, etc., on there, which the bottom line might have a price tag, and corresponding orchestration of how to safe...

Posted by HCN on Wednesday, September 28, 2022,
It looks like this storm is a ball of fire in the form of water. Definitely not something to play around with, gamble, or brush off. If individuals are in an area marked as at risk, or been directed to take shelter, it is highly recommended to do or have done as directed.
For years, jurisdictions have been criticized for not doing enough to protect the people in the event of an oncoming natural disaster. It appears that many steps have been taken. It is being asked to please abide and cooperat...

Note to our Readers

In the event of an emergency, time can be vitally important.  When HCN finds out about an imminent weather emergency, or a natural disaster that just occurred, our readers will likely agree, no one has time to be re-writing the same information with a different twist, especially when that time could be spent constructively working on the next alert.

Although our loftier ideal is to separate the website families, referring to the ETIS International group of sites that focus on environment and technology, with respect to the Headline Crest News sites, including our Google Plus supplement webpage, informational content regarding weather emergencies are often ones that can be placed on both sets of sites.

Therefore, starting September 2017, where there were storms Harvey, Irma, Maria, Jose, and Lee that affected the Western Hemisphere within that month, weather related content may be shared with:

  • ETISworld Severe Weather Condition Supplemental Blog

  • Natural Disasters, Severe Weather Warnings/Watch at the ETIS Interactive Website

  • Wildfire  Advisory Supplementary Blog at ETISworld
