  1. 1870s haven’t been matched for fires in the US.
    The Peshtigo bush fire of 1871 burned 1,200,000 acres and was the deadliest wildfire in American history, with the estimated deaths of around 1,500 people, and possibly as many as 2,500.

    And on the same day the famous Great Chicago urban fire killed up to 300.

    Considering the US population is now almost 10x what it was then, I would dare say they were “unprecedented”

  2. Our BoM sent a sacrificial spokesman out yesterday to opine on the very heavy rainfall in the Sydney area.

    1) “We always get rainfall in November”. Well, yeah …

    2) “Heaviest November rainfall since 1934”.

    So what was the atmospheric CO2 level in 1934 ?

    No-one in the meeja asks that.

  3. A Sky News (WIN) reporter this morning reported gravely that never before had Queensland seen bushfires of catastrophic level. If you examine that statement you find that Queensland only adopted the six-tier national bushfire warning system in October 2009 and before that the catastrophic classification didn’t exist. So while the statement may be correct, perhaps it lacks some context.

  4. I see the Qld fires news now somewhat reduced on ABC online news except for a link to Queensland Fire and Emergency Services site. Just got too complex and probably puzzling for the ABC. It could be years before these fire events are analysed and reported on calmly.
