..looking at the years' fire season for the Pilbara Ranger forum, and came across this just south of Roebourne. The 1st sat image from 27th Oct - 2nd the 30th, a beautiful example of how fire follows fuel and fuel follows water...but both πŸ’§and πŸ”₯need to flow through this country to keep it healthy.

I have been developing techniques for the automated assessment of fire events across Australia using NAFI (firenorth.org.au) data. These are the top 10 largest across Australia so far this year. 3 of them are > 1 million hectares (Terra-Fires, 100x mega fire). The year is not over.

Without due process its murder... murder seems a bit worse than kidnapping...or maybe its ok as long as US drones aren't murdering US citizens yet?

Can u maybe not do this... Trump replied. "I think we're just gonna kill people. Okay? We're gonna kill them. They're gonna be, like, dead."... US murders (other country) citizens.. AKA extra judicial executions... US citizens are upset he is building a ballroom.

'Bloodthirsty' Trump talks about extrajudicial killings after Nobel Prize snub Pete Hegseth compared the presence of alleged cartel boats in the Caribbean and Pacific to the 9/11 tragedy, the most significant terror attack on US soil

New rain radar site from #bom doesn't work. Bizzare that this federal gov agency just broke one of their core services.

Why are so many people posting about something they have done or attended prefixing their post by 'l am grateful or honored' etc etc... why does it need to be about how they feel? ... this focus 'on look at me' is intriguing. See it a most on LinkedIn.

Dozens of lightning strike fires across Australia's Western Deserts ATM. Sat images from a couple of days ago. Beautiful, complex and, at times, scary.

Mega-blaze in outback rapidly moves 100km and creates own weather system: 'Never seen it' An expert has tracked the source of this massive blaze. Find out more.

Massive fires east of Tennant Creek at the moment. This S2 image captured yesterday, fascinating to see how this blaze is creating its own weather on a couple of its fronts. This πŸ”₯ has moved over 100km over the last few days. This time of year, so hot and dry and lightning-rich storms are abundant

Not much genuine reflection goes on over there. They talk of Trump like the cause rather than a symptom of their sickness. These folks don't see their part in the pathology...

Dry lightning storms ripped through the Great Sandy, Gibson, and Tanami deserts a few days ago. Constrained by low fuel and previous burns, these desert fires are mostly small and really quite beautiful. Sentinel 2 imagery from Sunday.

However resilient country can be built, fuels at scale can be managed. Fund the tools to monitor fuels, fund the rangers on country. Watch these fires, especially their behavior related to previous burning, on the NAFI Moblie app.

750,000ha burnt across the NT over the last 5 days! This clip from yesterday - from the excellent Zoom Earth app. Mostly remote lightning strike fires. These fires can not be fought, these ignitions can't be controlled.

Kicking off wars is a bit of an obsession of the U. S. The new domestic focus will fit the MAGA ethos of keeping things a home. Might also make the rest of the world slightly less fearful of US aggression abroad...

100% ... Facism coming home. One thing to respect about this administration is a degree of honesty in their application of violence, no pretense. The delusion that bugs me is folks blaming Trump. He is simply symptomatic of a system that has long be a violent pesudo-democracy.

A shit-ton of lightning strikes through remote Tanami and Great Sandy deserts resulting in a similarly shit-ton of ignitions. Will be keeping a close eye on them over the coming days.

With potentially massive fires sparking up in the Central NT and WA deserts over the last few days I chucked this video together showing how to monitor their spread and asses their tradgectory using the North Australian Fire Information NAFI mobile app. Available on both Android and Apple
