Warum es wichtig ist
Early winter storm systems are common in the region but this one is deemed significant by the Bureau of Meteorology.
A major storm system with cyclone-strength winds is impacting Western Australia, with warnings for destructive gusts, thunderstorms, and flash flooding. The system will move east, bringing a wintry blast to South Australia and Victoria by Monday-Tuesday, with potential snow in alpine areas.
Residents in WA’s south-west were advised to prepare for gusts exceeding 125km/h from Saturday evening, with the Bureau of Meteorology noting the system’s significance.
The storm may herald the start of winter but long-term forecasts suggest a warmer-than-average season due to potential El Niño development.
