After a slow start to the 2008–09 Australian bushfire season, the high temperatures and wind precipitated several bushfires across Victoria and South Australia.The conditions were very similar to the heat wave experienced in early January 1939, which killed 438 people and precipitated the "Black Friday" bushfires of 1939.
