grinch Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Just saw Signal Hill in flames. The area above Bo Kaap up towards the Signal Hill Road. The wind is pumping. Can't tell if fire fighters are on the scene-way too much smoke.

seven Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 What's up with these arson cases in CT and surrounds?Makes me sick!
bikebloke Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 saw two choppers with buckets heading that way just before dark wondered what was happening in that direction
LeTurbo Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 I think I can see about 6 fire-engine lights up on the mountain from where I am. I feel sick to my stomach when I see this.
Slowbee Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 sheesh did not know it was just starting. saw it when we landed at ct airport just after 7. and news of flare ups in simonstown. and the wind is here for the weekend
Hairy Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 was this near the old quarry. ..if so, just about every year there is a fire that starts from that area. many vagrants make fire's there and they sometimes start the Bush fire from sparks, etc
Fruity Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 So sad. Praying for rain in the WCPraying as well.
kk6gan Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Last night I could see the flames from Blouberg and the smoke was bellowing out and being blown over the ocean. This morning I can't see any smoke, anyone know if the fire is out?

I honestly believe its more likely kids from the flats in the area with more time and matches on their hands than is useful,or people driving the road leading to the army base flicking cigarettes from their windows..There's already been two smaller fires on the hill recently, all starting near the roads or paths. No vagrants.

Yes, we caught on crap as a kid but this would not even be something that would cross my mind. This is sickening
