A severe weather warning is still in place for a large stretch of WA, with the Bureau of Meteorology saying destructive winds are set to get stronger as the day goes on.

“A deepening and intense low pressure system will approach the southwest today and will bring a significant burst of damaging to locally destructive winds to western and southern parts of the South West Land Division,” the warning states.

“Locally destructive winds gusts in excess of 125 km/h are likely over an area southwest of a line from Lancelin to Albany, including Perth, during Sunday afternoon and evening.

“The winds associated with the low pressure system during Sunday afternoon, evening and Monday morning are expected to produce dangerous weather that is only seen once every 3 to 5 years in the southwest of WA.”
