Using the Western Australia rainfall forecast safely
This map is forecast guidance, not a warning. Totals change with every model run, and a single storm can drop far more rain on one catchment than the map suggests. Official rainfall, flood and severe weather warnings from the Bureau of Meteorology always take priority for Western Australia. Never drive through floodwater.
For rain already falling, use the rainfall radar and observations. For storm risk, see the Western Australia thunderstorm forecast map.
Western Australia in focus
The national rainfall forecast framed on Western Australia, using exactly the same millimetre colour scale as every other view so you can compare areas fairly.
Clear issued and valid times
Every map states when the forecast was produced and the period it covers — the next 24 hours — in Australian eastern time.
Guidance, not a warning
Plan travel, outdoor work and farm operations around it, but Bureau of Meteorology rainfall and flood warnings always come first.
