Batten down the hatches
We’re expecting the region to get a battering tonight with southerly winds of up to 120kmh forecast.
For people in the southern suburbs, don’t forget to use your wheelie bin clip, or avoid putting your recycling out if you can to prevent items being blown about.
And don’t forget, if you’ve got a backyard trampoline or anything else that could take flight, tie it down!
PS. wrap up warmly – it’s going to be good weather for polar bears!
