Overnight on Monday, winds reached tops of 100kms in both Mandurah and Cape Leeuwin.

Weather bureau Stephen McInerney says conditions should ease through the day, however those in high-risk areas must stay indoors if wild weather picks up. 

"There is some strong showers and potentially thunderstorms moving through now. There is the risk we see pretty strong gusts along the west coast." McInerney said.

"Once we get to the latter part of the afternoon the risk will start decreasing."
