Colorado residents "nervous" as wildfire comes close to town of Meeker on the Western Slope
A wildfire close to Meeker in western Colorado has doubled in size. The Lee Fire west of the historic town has now burned an estimated 45,000 acres and so far firefighters don't have any containment on it. Several small neighborhoods outside of the town limits have been evacuated as the fire made a serious run Wednesday along Highway 13. The town of Meeker itself is standing by on a "set" status. The American Red Cross has set up a shelter for evacuees at Moffat County High School in Craig. Fire managers said on Wednesday night they are confident they will be able to prevent the fire from reaching the Rio Blanco County seat. The weather conditions are making the firefight challenging. Dry conditions are leading the fire to still rage in the nighttime hours when most wildfires usually settle down to a degree. "I'm feeling a little bit nervous, so I'm not going to lie," Joshua Quinn, who lives in the Meeker area, said on Wednesday as he watched flames marching closer to the town and heavy smoke filling the air. Sue Sprod lives close to Meeker and watched the "flames come over the hogback." "We feel like we do have a good buffer zone but I did get a little nervous this afternoon watching," she said. Sprod attended a community meeting Wednesday evening at Meeker High School led by fire managers, local law enforcement and U.S. Forest Service officials. They braced the community for the likelihood of several more days of high winds and dry conditions. The fire managers reiterated at the meeting that the buffer between the Lee Fire and the town of Meeker is holding. While the town waits on standby for evacuation, some in Rio Blanco County have already been pushed from their homes, like Stanton Gould. "I've been wrestling all my life and it's like sitting at a wrestling match, not knowing who you're going to wrestle in the next round," he said. Stanton says he's hopeful his home is still standing at the end of this, but he still has what counts. "I'd be more broken if it was a person or something. Everything you can replace, all it takes is money," Stanton said. Another wildfire is also burning close to Meeker but it isn't currently posing a threat to the town. The Elk Fire is located southeast of the town. During the day on Wednesday Gov. Jared Polis expanded an emergency declaration that was issued for the Elk Fire to include the Lee Fire.

Incredible 1,400km cloud could ruin the weekend for millions of Aussies
A massive cloud extending up to 1,400km across Australia will see residents of two states cop a significant drenching this weekend. On Thursday, an incredible weather map highlighted the breadth of the northwest cloudband, which extends over western Queensland, northern South Australia, and the southern parts of the Northern Territory. Meteorologists at Weatherzone have been tracking the cloud since it began above the Indian Ocean and predict it will combine with another system in the upper atmosphere on Friday. This will deliver heavy rain across parts of southern and eastern Queensland, as well as northern NSW. 'It will evolve into another system, becoming a trough,' meteorologist Yoska Hernandez told Yahoo News Australia. Related: Warning to Aussies over destructive weather trend impacting cars and homes Millions face a cold and rainy weekend The cloudband is already beginning to dissipate, and on Saturday, the system will begin moving offshore. But rain will continue through Sunday, perhaps into Monday, across parts of NSW, including Sydney, due to another coastal trough. Temperatures in Sydney will be two to three degrees below average in Sydney from Thursday through to Monday, which will be unwelcome news for millions of residents. Solution to Great Barrier Reef problem as new report released Everyday household items elevated as 'threat to humanity' $48 million national park announced to save iconic Aussie animals What causes these massive cloudbands? Northwest cloudbands of this size are not uncommon from mid-autumn through to early Spring. They form when tropical moisture from the Indian Ocean passes over Australia. As the mass moves southeast, rising over cooler air, a large cloud is produced. They tend to deliver significant rainfall when waters are warmer off Australia's northwest coast, and right now their temperature is above average.
