Bush Fires North of Sydney - Any updates????
Just seen on the Beeb news that there are bushfires north of Sydney - I assume that this is the Central Coast? Anyone their give me an update please, have friends in East Gosford, Point Clare, Umina & Woy Woy Little worried as when we lived there the fires could be really bad.
Cheers in advance.

Yikes, a class 3 out at Woy Woy Road, Kariong, used to live a foot step away from there before we came back to UK.
Hope everyone on the Coast are safe.
