Met Office: Gusty Winds To Exceed 60km/h As Tropical Wave Moves Through The Area

An adverse weather alert yellow level is in effect.

There is a high chance of heavy showers and/or thunderstorms associated with a strong tropical wave moving through the area.

Showers/thunderstorms are likely to be accompanied by gusty winds in excess of 60 km/h which can cause tree limbs, loose objects and weakened structures to become hazards.

Additionally, these strong winds can lead to dangerous sea conditions and with the added effect of spring tides, there may be an increased risk of coastal flooding.

Heavy rainfall can lead to flooding in low-lying areas.

Sudden downpours may reduce visibility and make driving conditions hazardous.

Although the Tropical Wave is already affecting the area, the most impactful weather is forecast from late night into the morning.

Secure loose items around your property.

Do not venture into flood waters.

Be vigilant to changing weather conditions in your area.
