Wet weather is expected this week as the region marks 16 consecutive days of rain.

The notably wet July rainfall averages have already exceeded in many areas within the South West and South West Land Division, from Kalbarri to Esperance.

So far Busselton has had 142mm dumped on the town while Cape Naturalist region has seen a 136.4mm drenching.

Things are set to get blustery as a low pressure system brings strong winds on Wednesday to much of Southern WA.

Conditions are expected to ease on Thursday before another cold front moves through southern parts on Friday.
