[LINK] Bush Fire Speeds (was Re: home emergencies)

[Pilcher, Fred]

Was it on LINK or somehwere else where someone noted that the ambient 50
degree temp was above the flash point of the volatile eucalyptus oils
and that pockets of the fuel/air mixture were exploding ahead of the
fire front?

If that's right, the front could advance much faster than the wind.
