TSUNAMI WARNING issued following Kermadecs earthquake. People near coast from the BAY OF ISLANDS to WHANGAREI, from MATATA to TOLAGA BAY, and GREAT BARRIER ISLAND must MOVE IMMEDIATELY to nearest high ground, out of all tsunami evacuation zones, or as far inland as possible

[National Emergency Management Agency @NZcivildefence]

We are assessing whether the M7.3 EAST OF THE NORTH ISLAND NEW ZEALAND earthquake at 2021-03-05 2:27 AM has created a tsunami that could affect New Zealand. We will provide an update as soon as the initial assessment has been completed.

[NSW RFS @NSWRFS]

The @BOM_au has forecast a heat wave to affect parts of #NSW later this week. This is likely to increase fire dangers especially in western parts of the state. Use the next few days to plan and prepare. Know what you will do if threatened by fire. #NSWRFS https://t.co/VeGOFqDj9g

[BNHCRC @bnhcrc]

Grass fires are the main risk in the east this summer, while in the west, the bush is dry. Full details in Australian Seasonal Bushfire Outlook, out today: https://t.co/FznSTMQMkw

[Shane Fitzsimmons @ShaneFitzAU]

A truly humbling honour - thank you to all who nominated. May we never forget all those affected by the fires & especially their loss and sacrifice.
Congrats again to all fellow finalists incl. Grace, Andrew & Craig & Category Winners, Rosemary, Nathan & Isabel #AusOfTheYear

[Bureau of Meteorology, Australia @BOM_au]

What's the #BOMoutlook for July-Sept?

There's around a 50% chance of #LaNina forming this year (about double the normal likelihood) which favours above average-rainfall for parts of central and eastern Australia.
