Global warming can lead to more frequent and intense heatwaves and droughts, creating dry conditions that increase the likelihood of bushfires. Warmer temperatures can also dry out vegetation, making it more susceptible to ignition. Additionally, shifting weather patterns due to climate change can alter traditional fire seasons and extend the window when bushfires are likely to occur.
Bushfires cannot happen during flooding rains.
Bushfires do not have names, unlike cyclones and hurricanes.

Bushfires are unpredictable. However, they always move faster uphill - for every ten degrees of gradient slope, the bushfire speed doubles. Depending on the winds, bushfires can rapidly change direction.
There have been too many bushfires to number. Despite being in the south, Victoria is one of Australia's hottest and driest states in Summer, and because there is so much dense bushland and sloping mountainsides (which bushfires quickly ascend), bushfires are particularly common in January and February.
The eucalyptus tree does not require bushfires to reproduce, but bushfires can aid reproduction. Intense heat tends to explode the seed pods thereby helping in reproduction process of the tree.
Not always. Victoria lies in the southern part of Australia, but it is regularly subject to hot, dry summers. Because it is heavily treed, and large areas of the state are quite mountainous, it experiences frequent, intense bushfires.
