Driving home from the cricket there is black smoke rising into the air.
As I near my place I realise it is at least 1 km away from home.
Fire Engine sirens, helicopters in the air.
Most likely will be a report on the local news in a couple of hours.

The fire was at the Mt Lawley Golf Club.
Bushland afire. Promptly extinguished.
1 km from me.

Summers are forever fire seasons.
This fire would have been deliberately lit.

I read something one time that up to 40% of bushfires were deliberately lit.
Scum.
