Become a volunteer weather watcher
The City of Port Phillip is asking for volunteer weather watchers to observe & record their own & their neighbour’s experiences of severe storms, floods and heatwaves. Your observations will help us understand current levels of community awareness & will help us develop Port Phillip specific information to help our community prepare for & respond to severe weather events.
The duration of the observation period is December 2011 – April 2012
If you would like to be involved please contact Anne Dansey on 9209 6693 or email adansey@portphillip.vic.gov.au.
