Cyclone Season is Here!

Published on Monday, 7 November 2022 at 3:50:00 PM

The windy weeks we’ve been having are a subtle hint that Cyclone season has started, with Bureau of Meteorology predicting the possibility of 11 Tropical Cyclones between November 2022 and April 2023.

Our website has some great information to assist in preparing your property for the upcoming season HERE, including the local radio channels to tune in to in the event of a cyclone.

Department of Fire and Emergency Services also have comprehensive guidelines for Cyclone Preparation HERE, what to do during a cyclone - including videos on how to stay safe while travelling, boating or at home, as well as information on Cyclone recovery too.

For alerts and warnings on Cyclones, fires, floods and even road crash incidents, save yourself a shortcut to https://www.emergency.wa.gov.au/ for the most up to date information during an emergency.
