Adelaide Hills bushfires

1939 series of bushfires in South Australia

The Adelaide Hills bushfires of 1939 were a series of bushfires in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia, that burned from 10 to 14 January. There had been ample rain during the winter of 1938 resulting in heavy understorey, but drought set in toward the end of the year. A heatwave in early January 1939 ensured the fuel load was very dry and particularly susceptible to fire.
