You could definitely smell the smoke in katoomba.....not sure if it was as bad as the media made out.

The helicopter footage I saw on news that night showed a cliff well covered in flames with residential adjacent clifftop...
It reinforced to me that taking refuge on a wall is no refuge at all when it comes to a decent fire.

Yes pretty amazing that it goes from snow to flames in two weeks, and todays weather would be closer to snow again...

I believe anything along the Narrow Neck plateau is closed. That includes Diamond Falls, Farside, Boganville and of course Narrow Neck.

Nothing of value there. Let it burn.
