23.01.2022 Western Australia is joining with other states and territories to deliver nationally consistent emergency information through the implementation of the Australian Warning System (AWS). The AWS is a national approach to information and warnings and aims to provide consistent warnings to Australian communities, so people know what they need to do when they see a warning level. The most important thing to know is that the colours for bushfire warnings issued on www.emergency.wa.gov.au will be changing ahead of the 2021-22 bushfire season.
