Yep, sure am. I'm very lucky in that I'm close to the CBD so, unlikely to be affected. I do have friends still further out (West and North West Sydney) where there's a lot of greenery/foliage around - nothing's on their radar yet, but it'd only take another cranially-deprived kid to light a scrub fire for shits and giggles to start it... I was reading about the predicted winds last night causing a potential fire cloud to occur. There was some rain in the city area at least during the night, but a lot of lightning as well. I haven't checked the latest news (It's 9:20am and I just woke up from night shift), but hopefully there's some respite today for those trying to battle it.
