Storm and Flood Assistance
The ACT State Emergency Service (ACTSES) has received 326 requests for assistance since yesterday afternoon due to the wet and windy weather across Canberra.
ACTSES crews supported by ACT Fire & Rescue, the ACT Rural Fire Service and Transport Canberra and City Services (TCCS) have put in a great effort to complete 322 jobs with the remaining four to be completed by tomorrow morning.
The ACTSES urges Canberrans to stay clear of fallen power lines and trees and be aware that trees and branches could fall in windy conditions. Residents should stay indoors, clear of windows and stay away from creeks, drains, streams and gutters.
