Australia Update

CBS carried an AP report that Australia Wildfire Death Toll Reaches 200. They have been searching the open areas, and are now doing the more difficult job of checking structures. The heat of the fire may have cremated people, so it is unlikely that all of the remains will ever be found.

The Australian Broadcasting report, Police urge patience as bushfire death toll climbs, noted that firefighters are still battling 21 fires, 15 of which are contained. The temperatures are also rising back above 30°C [86°F].  While no communities are currently at risk, all it takes is for the winds to pick up.
