Tasmania SES is asking the community to be prepared with potentially heavy rainfall and thunderstorms forecast across the state today.
“With a significant weather system forecast across the state today, we are advising everyone to be prepared and keep informed of the conditions,” said SES Assistant Director Leon Smith.
“The weather system, including possible severe thunderstorm activity, is expected to cross the state starting on the west coast as far south as Strahan this morning before extending to the north coast around Bridport.
“The system is then expected to move to the south of the state early this afternoon.
“With thunderstorm activity comes the potential for flash flooding in localised areas.
“塔斯馬尼亞緊急事故管理服務處（Tasmania SES）正在為惡劣天氣做準備，我們也鼓勵民眾同樣做好準備。”
國家緊急服務處建議民眾應該：
- 密切監督兒童。.
- 確保家人和鄰居都已得知警告。.
- 管理寵物和牲畜。.
- 固定戶外物品，包括家具和遊樂器材。.
- 以防停電做好準備，並致電 132 004 向 TasNetworks 報告任何停電情況。.
