Three years of a severe drought across the country had tinder forests left dry, to the race that it is too easy for The Fire into new areas.
however, it had to rekindle some rain before the last weekend, isolated showers could not dampen effectively The Soil and reduces The Risk of fire.
"Even if we have some declines of 30 or 50mm, it was not enough," Simon Heemstra of the Rural fire service (RFS) said the BBC.
"in General, if you 20mm, you should be happy to slow it down and put a lot of fire.
"But since it was so dry, you could always 50mm and rain would simply be absorbed very quickly. And within a couple of days, that the vegetation dried out again, and started Burning again. "
The RFS fleet of Water -bombing aircraft, against "megafires" are the size of small countries, could only have limited influence on such a landscape. At least two of The Fire More Than 500,000 acres had burned by the time you went.
But because The Rain was heavy and came quietly over the weekend, it could soak in sparse vegetation and seep deep into The Soil , rather than just run.

"would you rain probably need to reach hundreds, even thousands of drops from the aircraft, the equivalent of a good amount of 30-50mm.
"the quantity that you would need to the Burning materials, the on these grounds is simply enormous. "
