thunderstorm warning has been issued for parts of WA, with those heading south for Easter told to expect heavy rainfall which could lead to flash flooding.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">The Bureau of Meteorology issued the warning for the South East Coastal area near Esperance just after 8am on Friday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cThunderstorms persist this morning across parts of southern WA, supported by an upper trough, with some of these delivering heavy rainfall,\u201d the BoM said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">\u201cSevere thunderstorms are likely to produce heavy rainfall that may lead to flash flooding in the warning area over the next several hours.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">Emergency WA has urged those in the area to \u201cact now and stay safe\u201d by packing away, securing or tying down outdoor furniture and preparing an emergency kit with a radio that runs off batteries.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">For the Perth metro area, conditions are looking far better, with temperatures to hit a maximum of 29C.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">The rest of the Easter long weekend is also expected to deliver beautiful weather for Perth residents, with Saturday\u2019s temperature reaching 26C, Sunday\u2019s 24C and Monday hitting a top of 26C.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-9cqv6l-StyledPNParagraph e8utp6u0\">The sun will be out over Perth for
