Emergency WA

Emergency WA is Western Australia’s trusted source for emergency information.

The Emergency WA platform, including a website and mobile app, provides users with near-real time information about incidents, alerts and warnings for hazards near them. Users can visit emergency.wa.gov.au or download the new Emergency WA app from the App Store or Google Play.

App users can set personalised watch zones for locations important to them and receive push notifications direct to their devices for warnings, incidents, Fire Danger Ratings, Total Fire Bans and more. Users can also listen live to their local ABC broadcast and use the Read Aloud tool to hear an audio version of warning content.

Emergency WA publishes a range of information including:

• A live feed of incidents reported to the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) so people can see basic information about the type and location of the hazard.

• Warnings and alerts from a range of State Government entities involved in the management of emergencies.

• Total Fire Bans and Fire Danger Ratings.

• Visual display of weather information direct from the Bureau of Meteorology.

• Incident Areas showing where a bushfire or other hazard has been active.

Remember, emergencies can happen quickly so always be aware of your surroundings and act immediately for your own safety. In a life threatening emergency call triple zero (000).
