A Cyclone Advice is in place for south of MARDIE, north of NINGALOO to north of NORTH WEST COASTAL HIGHWAY, including EXMOUTH, ONSLOW and coastal islands.

The cyclone risk has passed through the area.
WHAT TO DO
- Take care on the roads, obey road closure signs and do not drive into floodwaters.
- Drive slowly and be aware of emergency services personnel who are still working in the area.
- Be careful of fallen powerlines and trees, broken water and sewerage pipes, loose roof sheeting and other material.
- To help protect you from debris and mosquito-borne risks, wear strong shoes like sneakers or boots and suitable long, loose-fitting clothing.
- If your home is damaged, take photographs for insurance purposes and contact your insurance company.
- Stack loose material away from water meters, valves and powerlines.
- Keep electricity and all electrical and gas appliances turned off until checked by a qualified tradesperson.
- Never use matches, cigarette lighters or naked flames when entering a building as there may be a gas leak.
If your home has significant damage, like a badly damaged roof or flooding, call the SES for assistance with temporary repairs on 132 500.
If you do not have a plan, make one now on Emergency WA, or in the Emergency WA app to stay safe in future emergencies.
