Heavy gusts were expected to continue into the afternoon and rainfall over the next two days was likely to cause river level rises, according to Chris Irvine, an acting assistant director at the state's emergency service. Although the worst winds have now mostly passed, we are still expecting widespread gusts of 100km/h to 110km/h across the state this afternoon before easing below warning thresholds this evening, Irvine said.
