Sheep graziers warned to protect livestock

The Bureau of Meteorology has warned local livestock owners to protect their animals from Friday through to Saturday due to the expectedly poor weather conditions

Sheep graziers in the North East forecast region, which includes some of the Yarra Ranges, are warned that cold temperatures, rain and showers and northerly winds are expected on Friday and Saturday.

There is a risk of losses of lambs and sheep exposed to these conditions.

Sheep in particular are adversely affected by wet weather followed by a cold front while their coats are still wet.
