Parts of the country are bracing for more destructive storms as several strong cold fronts barrel across southern Australia. The Bureau of Meteorology has issued severe weather warnings for southwest Western Australia, Tasmania and parts of Victoria, with strong, damaging winds expected to develop overnight and escalate on Tuesday and into Tuesday night in the southeast. The warning areas are expected to extend into southeast South Australia and southeast NSW on Tuesday.
“The combination of high soil moisture and damaging to destructive wind speeds increases the chances of trees being brought down.” The warnings came after Sunday night storms left more than 15,000 without power in Victoria, with Country Fire Authority volunteers responding to some 500 calls for assistance, including 285 trees down. SES Victoria has warned residents to prepare for the wild weather with wind gusts of up to 100 km/h expected from Tuesday afternoon and into Wednesday.
