Cape Town Burns - Update

From my vantage point,it appears that while the fire's front was shrunk and continously kept away from the houses.
It has hit an densely vegetated area though, and the flames appear 5+ meters high.
The area used to be inhabited by many indigenous antelope, buffalo and famously a Rhino. Fortuously they have been moved when the game farm foreclosed about a year ago.
Homeowners in the houses just below look on nervously.
The winds continue to blow gale force, the firefighters continue the night vigil.
