Storm and Flood Assistance
ACT State Emergency Service (ACTSES) have responded to over 360 requests for assistance, since 9:30am yesterday following recent rain and strong winds.
Crews from ACTSES, ACT Fire & Rescue and Transport Canberra & City Services have responded to leaks as a result of roof damage, with many homes revisited after the recent hailstorm.
Our volunteer crews are busy on the ground and are working as quickly as they can to clear jobs. Please be patient as we respond to each and every call out throughout the day.
The Bureau of Meteorology predict thunderstorms for this afternoon. ACTSES urge Canberrans to take the steps now to keep your property safe. Secure any loose items around your property, avoid parking under trees and do not enter or drive through flooded areas.
