Severe Thunderstorm Warning - ACT

The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a severe thunderstorm warning for damaging winds and heavy rainfall. Due to the heavy rain we have had lately, flash flooding may occur.

Parts of Canberra are already experiencing rain, and this is likely to continue for several hours.

If it is safe to do so, the ACT State Emergency Service (ACTSES) advises the community to:

-Move your car under cover or away from trees
-Secure or put away loose items that are outside

It’s important to never drive, ride or walk through floodwater. If you need support during storms and floods call the ACTSES on 132 500. In a life-threatening emergency call Triple Zero (000).
