SYDNEY - Electricity firms cut off power to thousands of people, more than 100 schools were closed and residents in high risk regions were poised to evacuate on Wednesday as Australia’s devastating bushfires opened up a new front.
On Wednesday, a fresh battle line was drawn as 50 fires sprung up in South Australia state, where officials lifted the fire danger warning to “catastrophic” as temperatures passed 42 degrees Celsius . As some of fires approached electricity transmission lines, provider SA Power Networks cut power to around 10,000 customers.
“This is the worst of the weather from a fire behavior point that we will have seen,” Eden told reporters in Adelaide, the state capital.
