Residents in Perth and the South West are being warned to brace for wild weather, including damaging winds and possible hail, with a cold front crossing the coast late on Monday morning.
The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) said the coast would be hit by wind gusts of up to 125 kilometres per hour between 10:00am and midday, which could cause damage to homes.
There is also the possibility of heavy rain and hail early this afternoon.
We have just returned home from shopping, it's the first time that we have seen mobile bill boards on the highways flashing S.E.S. warnings of the impending Storm, they are taking this storm seriously !!!
It's now near to 11.30am and she's bucketing down, thunder and lighting going mad as well, sure glad we're not camping at the moment.
