Australia will have to wait until March for rains heavy enough to bring sustained relief from dry weather that has fuelled deadly bushfires, the country's weather bureau has said
Over the past few months the bushfires have razed an area roughly a third the size of Germany, killed 29 people, and destroyed more than 2,000 homes.
Even then, the bureau warned more rains would be needed to end three years of drought on the east coast. The relief, however, is expected to be temporary, with hot weather forecast to return in coming weeks.
