NSW SES Updates & Bulletins
The NSW SES is now officially using the Australian Warning System (AWS) for flood and tsunami warnings.
The AWS is a nationally consistent, three-tiered approach designed to make warnings clearer and lead people to take action ahead of severe weather events. The warning system comprises of warning levels, action statements, hazard icons, colours and shapes.
There are three levels within the AWS – Advice, Watch & Act and Emergency Warning. For each level, there are a series of clear action statements to guide positive action by the community. These include ‘stay informed’, ‘prepare to evacuate’ and ‘move to higher ground’ as shown below:
Look out for these coloured warnings on our social media pages and on the interactive map on our website: https://www.ses.nsw.gov.au/
