OSoSwift Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) Whipit's house is still standing, amazingly though, pergola, garden shed and pool all burnt. The pictures are scarey. It was that close it is unbelievable. The neighbours were not so lucky Edited February 7, 2011 by OSoSwift Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirawee Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Are the fires still going? The Brigadoon fire is still going too. It seems to have gone up to the quarry atm although other streets were put on alert again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirawee Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 (edited) If you want to look at alerts to find out the current information FESA is releasing go here: https://internet.fesa.wa.gov.au/alerts/Pages/Alerts.aspx ETA: A quick summary is that all fire aside from Roleystone and Brigadoon are either contained or controlled (or both LOL) but people in the areas (Ferndale, Jarrahdale, Upper Chittering and Coorow) should still remain vigiliant because of the wind. Roleystone and Brigadoon fires are neither contained nor controlled Edited February 7, 2011 by mirawee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poo-Fong Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Oh my God. Just got back from the evac centre in Armadale, dropped off supplies & dog, cat & bird food, as well as bowls, litter trays, collapsible crates etc. SO MANY people, and lots of dogs... Most people I spoke to are hoping to keep their four-legged friends with them at the moment, can't say I blame them. It's just so utterly overwhelming there at the moment, I can't really describe it Wish I could help more, going to pick up Whipitgood's two girls shortly and will bring them here till they get sorted, happy to have more if anyone is is need... my mobile no is 0403 866 741 (number is on my website etc so not worried about posting it here ) Hoping everyone's friends and family stay safe, and that no more property is lost...

RubyStar Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 I know there are kennels and such that can take dogs in need but if anyone needs me to look after their dogs for a while at my house i am happy to do so.
