Good to hear from you mate. A journo Phil Coorey who has a house at Tuross Heads took his family back to Canberra very early this morning and was driving back to Tuross alone via Brown Mountain to stay at his property which is pretty safe comparatively except for ember strikes that can travel many km 
. At about 3.30 pm he said the traffic was backed up bumper to bumper, vans, boats family etc, on the 25 km twisting 2 lane mountain road from Bemboka to Cooma. He was the only one coming back the other way. The Princes Hway south of Batemans to Bega was blocked again later.
He said it was chaos with no traffic mgt as Police busy elsewhere. He said hopefully by early morning it will have cleared to allow any more to dash up to escape the pending conditions Saturday.
