A forest fire is extremely hot and can reach temperatures of up to 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit. The materials being burned and atmospheric conditions play a large part in the actual temperatures.

The New South Wales Rural Fire Service, the Bushfire Cooperative Research Centre and CSIRO scientists have conducted research and tests related to bushfire heat (although these tests have been more to determine safety aspects of vehicles in fires). Whilst temperatures of the fire front itself have not been determined, it appears that inside the cabin of a car in a bushfire, temperatures can reach 300 degrees.

A bushfire can get so hot that gum trees literally explode, car wheels melt, houses can be reduced to nothing in a few minutes, people and animals can be reduced to charred skeletons.

Bush fires can be extremely severe. The 2009 bush fire in Victoria, Australia, has killed over 80 people so far and destroyed homes, schools and bush land.
