Severe Weather Warning for Destructive Wind
Issued: 8:39 AM Jul. 5, 2025 – Australian Government Bureau of Meteorology
Strong northwesterly DAMAGING WINDS averaging 50 to 65 km/h with peak gusts of around 100 km/h are likely to develop about the front over the South West district during Sunday morning, extending to the Lower West and South Coastal districts, including Perth, during the afternoon. Locally DESTRUCTIVE WIND GUSTS with peak gusts in excess of 125 km/h are also possible along the front over coastal parts of the South West and Lower West districts south of and including Mandurah during Sunday afternoon and may cause SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO HOMES AND PROPERTY. HEAVY RAINFALL which may lead to FLASH FLOODING is also possible with showers and thunderstorms about the front for parts of the South West, Lower West and South Coastal districts, including Perth, during the late morning and afternoon. Six-hourly rainfall totals between 30 to 40 mm are likely, with possible isolated totals up to 60 mm. On Sunday evening conditions are forecast to temporarily ease throughout the warning area. On Monday widespread west to northwesterly DAMAGING WINDS averaging 50 to 65 km/h with peak gusts of around 100 km/h are expected to redevelop about the far southwest in the early morning, expanding to the remainder of the warning area by the middle of the day. Winds will shift to the southwest behind this second front, with DAMAGING WINDS likely to persist throughout the afternoon and into the evening. Conditions are then expected to ease from the west during Monday evening. The front crossing on Sunday will produce weather that is about typical for this time of year. The front crossing on Monday is stronger, people in the southwest of WA experience fronts as windy as this about 5 times per year. This second front will be the strongest front of the year to date. Locations which may be affected include Albany, Bunbury, Esperance, Katanning, Mandurah, Manjimup, Margaret River, Mount Barker, Narrogin, Northam and Perth.
