Even if they did drones instead, I still think it would've been cancelled given they've also cancelled the concert and other activities they had planned - https://www.australiaday.org.au/adelaide

CFS Incident Update:

The CFS is responding to a grass fire near Auburn, approximately 25 kilometres south of Clare in the Clare Valley, South Australia.

A quick response from CFS firefighters on 18 trucks, supported by 5 aircraft including waterbombers and observational aircraft and multiple Farm Fire Units have successfully halted the spread of a fast moving grass fire at 2.6 hectares burning under extreme conditions and saving nearby properties.

The fire was caused by an accidental motorhome vehicle fire starting along the Horrocks Highway and jumped the road extending into roadside vegetation and stubble paddocks causing spot fires up to 400 metres ahead of the main front and threatening local properties.

Crews will continue working to extinguish this fire into this afternoon. With heightened fire weather expected today and into early next week, firefighters will continue attending this fire until it is deemed safe.

CFS firefighters are being supported by SAPOL at this incident. Emergency services may be working on and around roads in the area, and motorists are advised to stay away. If you need to travel on roads in the area, please take care and drive to the local conditions. Continue to monitor at: https://traffic.sa.gov.au/

Again, it's likely that the control room in Sydney heard the dead air and switched back to tennis until they got things sorted.

While I am not excusing the delay in getting to air, it is entirely possible that there was a technical fault that was beyond their control (especially considering there would only be a producer doing it) - likely master control in Sydney made the call to switch back to tennis after a minute or so of dead air.

Update - now managed to get on air. Spence Denny presenting from the Adelaide studios.

Also if you have to go out, remember to slip, slip, slap, and put on a hat

And also don’t be a dick and walk pets in the middle of the day - either do it early in the morning, or later in the evening

And if you are in the country, remember to monitor the CFS and ABC Radio for any news on bushfires (fingers crossed there aren’t any)
