the Ash Wednesday bushfires of 1983 hit huge areas of Victoria and South Australia. Between April 1982 and January 1983, Victoria and the south of Australia experienced severe drought conditions and little rainfall, resulting in its driest period on record. On 8 February 1983, hot gusty winds and a severe dust storm hit Melbourne, already experiencing temperatures above 40°C, and exacerbated the intense heat and dry conditions. On 16 February 1983, eight days after the dust storm, approximately 180 bushfires broke out around the state. A number of factors contributed to the fires, among them arson, and wind gusts which either caused electric wires to clash or tree branches to hit the wires, sparking fires.
Original Sin - INXS song - was created in 1983-12.
