CATASTROPHIC FIRE RISK - CANYONLEIGH

I had never heard of a fire risk at Catastrophic level until this month.  My stepdaughter lives in New South Wales and this is today's fire risk.

She said in an email yesterday  "At the moment it's like the end of the world.  It is stinking hot and the smoke is almost unbearable" .  They have two horses, four dogs and two cats.  All very worrying.
