Hundreds of firefighters are battling two out-of-control bushfires blazing near Melbourne. On Friday lightning strikes sparked several fires in Bunyip State Park, which has already destroyed several homes. Winds are now also causing problems as a change in wind direction has turned the flames to new areas of forest. Our correspondent in Melbourne is Phil Kafcaloudes.
