There’s been another bushfire emergency in Western Oz weeks after homes were lost in Perth’s northern suburbs. The fire in Parkerville in the Perth hills about 30kms east of the city centre – started yesterday morning and quickly escalated with aerial footage showing several homes destroyed. It’s the same place where 57 houses were destroyed in 2014. It was one of 4 major bushfires burning in southern WA yesterday – a separate blaze near the town of Northcliffe south of Bunbury also caused problems – but all have since been downgraded. Premier Roger Cook has also furiously called out a drone operator who disrupted aerial water bombing efforts at a fire at the fishing village of Lancelin. Cook says it was an “idiotic thing to do” and has threatened big fines once police find them.
