Lightning strike across the valley in Kergunyah Brigade area. Thanks to everyone who is still out there trying to stop the fire spreading. And thanks to neighbours who spotted a tree on fire on the Gundowring North side of the valley and attended with private vehicles to put out what could have been a disastrous fire.
