Perth's Seasonal Rainfall

Rainfall has implications for everyone, and in particular,  agriculture and other water using businesses, parks and gardens, rivers, estuaries and the environment.

The Department of Water is taking a proactive approach in responding to the season as per last year.

The department is acting now to minimise impacts this summer and next year as much as possible, and is a leader in a whole of government  approach to sensibly managing the state's water resources.
