GALES and heavy rain are set to batter Perth and the South-West with severe weather forecast for tonight and tomorrow morning.
The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a severe weather warning this afternoon as a deep low and cold front closes in on the south-west of WA this evening.
The warning covers people south-west of a line from Jurien Bay to Merredin to Hyden to Israelite Bay, which includes the Perth metro area, Mandurah and Busselton regions.
The Bureau warns that widespread damaging winds to 100km/h, which could result in damage to homes and property, with isolated gusts up to 125km/h possible.
"Damaging winds and dangerous gusts are likely to develop southwest of a line Jurien Bay to Merredin to Bremer Bay after 11pm tonight, and then southwest of a line Walpole to Narrogin to Hyden to Israelite Bay after 8am Sunday," the Bureau states.
Conditions are expected to ease for a period on Sunday but the Bureau warns that damaging winds and dangerous gusts are likely to redevelop south-west of a line Perth to Walpole by 11pm.
People are advised that higher than normal tides may cause flooding in low lying coastal areas between Perth and Albany, while dangerous surf conditions are likely which could cause beach erosion.
Heavy rainfall associated with the system could cause flash flooding in isolated areas.
The Department of Fire and Emergency Services advises that people should:
- Store or weigh down loose objects such as outdoor furniture.
- Have an emergency kit with a battery operated radio, torch, spare batteries and first aid kit.
- Ensure pets and animals are in a safe area.
- Move vehicles under cover.
- Boat owners should securely moor their boats.
- Campers should find shelter away from trees, power lines, storm water drains and streams.
Residents whose property is badly damaged or flooded should contact the State Emergency Service on 132 500.
