Heavy rain and damaging winds are set to hit southwest Western Australia as an intense low-pressure system moves across the state.
Wind gusts of more than 100 km/h and isolated rainfall totals of up to 100mm are possible across Sunday and into Monday.
The Bureau of Meteorology says parts of the midwest Gascoyne, Perth, the southwest, lower southwest and the Great Southern region will feel the brunt of the severe weather.
There has been widespread flooding in the Gascoyne region due to heavy rain associated with the tropical low, located off Carnarvon.
Road closures include the North West Coastal Highway from the Overlander Roadhouse north to Carnarvon and north of Carnarvon through to Coral Bay. pic.twitter.com/Wz0GVtnnQN Rita Saffioti (@Rita Saffioti) February 6, 2021
