11.01.2022 Take action with severe weather coming in parts of the Kimberley, Pilbara Update time: 06:45AM, 09 December 2020 If you live in parts of Kimberley, Pilbara an...d North Interior districts you should take action and stay safe with severe weather to come. Locations which may be affected include Broome, Derby, Bidyadanga, Kuri Bay, Lombadina and Telfer. People in the north of WA may experience this type of weather each year at this time but heavy rain may cause damage to property and make road conditions hazardous. WHAT TO DO: DFES advises you to: - If outside find safe shelter away from trees, powerlines, storm water drains and streams. - Close your curtains and blinds, and stay inside away from windows. - Unplug electrical appliances and avoid using landline telephones if there is lightning. - If there is flooding, create your own sandbags by using pillow cases filled with sand and place them around doorways to protect your home. - If boating, swimming or surfing leave the water. IF DRIVING: - Do not drive into water of unknown depth and current. - Slow down, turn your lights on and keep a safe distance from other drivers. - Be alert and watch for hazards on the road such as fallen powerlines and loose debris. - If it is raining heavily and you cannot see, pull over and park with your hazard lights on until the rain clears. - People are being urged to do what they can to help themselves, if it is safe to do so, before calling the SES for assistance. - Take care in areas that have been flooded and be careful driving on gravel roads as surfaces will be slippery and muddy, and vehicles could become bogged.
