WA weather warning: Downpours of rain and ‘vigorous' winds expected to batter the southwest
People in WA's South West are bracing themselves for a battering of wet weather as the strongest front of the year so far is set to hit on Monday. West Aussies can expect an influx of wet weather between Sunday afternoon until Monday night as two cold fronts prepare to lash the southwest coastline. A strong cold front on Sunday is set to bring 'vigorous northwesterly winds,' with damaging with gusts up to 100km/h, the Bureau of Meteorology said. Mandurah is set to cop the brunt of it as the bureau predicts 'locally destructive wind gusts' above 125km/h and the possibility of 'significant damage to homes and property.' Affected locations may include Albany, Bunbury, Esperance, Katanning, Mandurah, Manjimup, Margaret River, Mount Barker, Narrogin, Northam and Perth. Heavy, six-hourly rainfall between 30-40mm are likely, which may lead to flash flooding. There will be a short reprieve overnight before a second cold front arrives on Monday, bringing with it even fiercer conditions. 'The front crossing on Monday is stronger, people in the southwest of WA experience fronts as windy as this about five times per year,' the bureau said. 'This second front will be the strongest front of the year to date.' The Department of Fire and Emergency Services advised residents to prepare now by tying down any loose outdoor furniture or preparing an emergency kit. Conditions are expected to ease from the west on Monday evening.

Record-breaking rain and winds hit Australia's east coast
More than half a century of rainfall records have been shattered by the extreme weather that has swept through parts of the east coast and brought winds rivalling Tropical Cyclone Alfred. The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) warned on Monday the weather event would "drench and batter" the east coast over the coming week. Some forecasters — not the BOM — feared that the lower pressure system could develop into an "east coast low" — one of the most dangerous weather systems the region could experience. It would have been the first east coast low in three years. But the bureau described this weather system as a "vigorous coastal low pressure system" that brought heavy rainfall and strong winds. University of Melbourne climatologist Linden Ashcroft said these types of weather systems were characteristic of the climate in eastern Australia but they could have devastating impacts. "It's always very devastating when they hit, particularly in areas that just don't seem to be getting a break over the last year or so." BOM senior meteorologist Dean Narramore said a low-pressure system developed off the Queensland coast this week and brought widespread heavy rainfall, damaging winds and coastal flooding to parts of New South Wales and eastern Victoria. The Illawarra and South Coast regions of NSW recorded the highest rainfall totals, with some areas receiving more than 300mm between Monday and Wednesday. Some of the areas with the highest rainfall totals in that time included Currarong, with 346 millimetres, Jervis Bay, with 331mm, and Ulladulla, with 308mm. But this weather event has not only been about rainfall; there have been significant winds across Queensland and NSW. A new wind gust record was set at Brisbane Airport. The BOM said wind gusts of up to 81 kilometres per hour were recorded on Wednesday night — the strongest for that site for the month of July since records began 26 years ago. The BOM said the gusts were equal to the highest gusts recorded at the airport during Tropical Cyclone Alfred in March. On Thursday, at least nine flights between Brisbane and Sydney were cancelled due to wind conditions in NSW. The most severe winds so far in NSW occurred at Montague Island. Most of the rainfall records were broken in the 24 hours to 9am on July 2. Ulladulla (224 mm) had its heaviest July downpour on record, Nowra (157mm) experienced its heaviest rain in July for 25 years, Moruya Airport (147mm) had its heaviest July rain in 78 years, and Narooma (140mm) set a July record. "So, pretty much from Wollongong down to Bega and inland towards the ranges. That's where we're pretty much seeing widespread 150-300mm in the three days," Mr Narramore said. "Eastern parts of Victoria saw widespread 50-150mm in the three days down there. While elsewhere mostly saw 50-100mm over the last few days." The rainfall experienced in some parts of the south-east coast saw rainfalls in the top 97th and 99th percentiles. Dr Ashcroft explained Australia's weather systems were partially impacted by what happened in the oceans around it. "The Bureau of Meteorology's outlook for this winter was saying higher-than-average rainfall in the eastern part of Australia. "We've got warmer-than-normal ocean temperatures off the east coast, which means there's probably more moisture availability in the atmosphere, and then these kinds of weather systems do happen." For Dr Ashcroft, while these sorts of weather systems are very devastating, they are also important sources of rainfall. It is increasingly relevant because studies have shown winter systems such as those experienced on the east coast will likely decrease in frequency, particularly under high greenhouse-gas-emission scenarios. "Which is kind of good, in terms of impact, but it could be bad in terms of water availability. So this intense rain has a lot of impact, but it also can be an important source of water for the catchments that are being affected," she said. "I'm not trying to downplay any of the terrible impacts that are being experienced, particularly in communities that are already tired and still cleaning up from Alfred, but it's an important source of water."
