It’s been a wild couple of days in Canberra with the ACT State Emergency Service receiving nearly 800 calls for help following a storm on Monday afternoon.

Crews are working hard to attend to jobs as quickly as possible. Staff and volunteers from the ACT Emergency Services Agency are being supported by Transport Canberra & City Services, the NSW State Emergency Service, and ACT Policing Search & Rescue.

More unsettled weather is predicted at the end of the week. Now is the time to prepare your home and family for a storm. Complete or update your 20-minute Survival Plan on the ACT Emergency Services Agency website - www.esa.act.gov.au/survival-plan
