South West Storm

Just noticed the latest warnings for this weekends weather say Geographe Bay will be the worst hit by tidal surge's


"HIGHER THAN NORMAL TIDES may cause FLOODING OF LOW-LYING COASTAL AREAS. DANGEROUS SURF CONDITIONS are likely which could cause SIGNIFICANT BEACH EROSION. The Geographe Bay area is likely to experience the worst of these tidal conditions, with the storm surge expected to peak during Saturday morning, with a secondary lower peak late Saturday evening."

Guess it's that time of year but it look's like we are going to get dumped with a considerable amount of rain and a lot of the local rivers could be subject to flooding as well.

 

"For the 24 hours to 9am Saturday rainfall totals of 20mm to 40mm are forecast for the South West District. Widespread rainfall of 30mm to 50mm with isolated falls up to 80mm are forecast for the 24 hours to 9am Sunday. Isolated falls are likely to be in the coastal parts of the District.

Catchments where flooding may develop include:

Harvey River

Collie River

Preston River

Bussleton Coast Catchment

Lower Blackwood River

Donnelly River

Warren River

Shannon River"
