Stay safe everyone ⚠️⚠️

: Police are urging people to STAY INSIDE, with strong winds and severe weather affecting many parts of Tasmania this evening.

Police have received reports of fallen trees and power lines in various locations across the state, with some power and phone line outages occurring, and are advising people to reconsider their need to travel on the roads.

"Please stay inside if you can, and beware of the risk of falling trees and powerlines."

If travelling on the roads, police advise you to please:
- Drive at a speed that allows plenty of time to stop quickly
- Do not try and travel if you can’t see clearly out your windscreen
- Be aware the roads may be slippery, and you could be driving on ice and black ice, which is almost invisible
- Leave plenty of space between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead

: The State Emergency Service are bracing for flash flooding in Southern Tasmania over the next 24 hours, with up to 150mm of rain expected in some areas between now and Friday night! 🌧☔️

Senior Forecaster Luke Johnston at the Bureau of Meteorology in Hobart told Pulse mild to moderate flooding is “pretty likely” around parts of the south, with moderate to major flooding quite possible, particularly in the Huon River.

Mr Johnston says there is also a chance of thunderstorms across the south tonight, which will have a “huge impact” on where the rain falls.

Drive to the conditions, stay warm and stay safe Tassie! 💙

A Hobart woman has gotten the fright of her life recently, finding a CRICKET in her supermarket groceries!

Nicole Gates says she found the cricket in her bag of spinach, which she purchased recently from the Shoreline Plaza Woolworths on Hobart's Eastern Shore.

A Woolworths corporate spokesperson says the company takes food safety and quality seriously and are aware of the customer’s report.

"It appears to be an isolated incident, as we’re unaware of any other reports of a similar nature on this product at this time."

Woolworths tell Pulse they have provided the customer with a $50 gift voucher, in the interim, to apologise for the inconvenience.
