🌧️🌬️ Lock 'em down, Bunbury! 🌧️🌬️
A Severe thunderstorm forecast for this weekend, and we are in for a proper lashing. Heavy rain, damaging winds, and potential storms are on the radar.
This means it is time to secure any loose items around the yard. And yes, we are looking directly at you, Trampoline. We know you’ve been eyeing the neighbor’s fence line all summer, but this is not your weekend to fly the coop. Tie it down, flip it over, or anchor it—let's keep the aerial acrobatics to a minimum.
If you're out on the roads, keep your headlights on. And remember, if you see emergency flashing lights - whether it’s our red trucks or our mates from the SES, the law requires you to slow down to 40 km/h. Give crews the space they need to work safely.
Stay safe, stay dry, and keep your backyard furniture grounded.
