I've seen it on news reports (and how awful it is) but not made this connection.

Firefighters interviewed yesterday were describing how there were places you could not reach with hoses and they just had to go in and stamp with their boots on still smouldering heather etc.

Did AR witness such an event (as with the freezing of the lake) or was it just a constant fear in hot dry weather?
