Thank you for joining us, we will wrap our live coverage of Cyclone Narelle for the night here.

We will be back tomorrow with more updates as they come.

 These images, from Natalie Manks in Coral Bay, show some of the damage Cyclone Narelle brought to the town. 

Trees and fences have been no match for the gale force winds. 

The skies of Shark Bay look apocalyptic as it braces for Cyclone Narelle's impact.

The Shire of Carnarvon is advising all residents to shelter, with the area entering a red alert emergency warning.

Carnarvon resident Esmie Nimbwen is sheltering in her second-floor apartment with her partner.

"My heart is pounding from the roof rattling," she told the ABC.

"It's just like it will blow away very soon."

More than 600 Carnarvon properties are currently without electricity, according to Horizon Power.

It's estimated power will be restored later this evening.

It's also been bucketing down across the Perth metro area, with places like Bickley, Swanbourne and Jandakot recording more than 30 millimetres of rainfall since 9am.

The Perth metro gauge has picked up just over 21mm.

However, contrary to popular opinion, Jessica Lingard says Severe Tropical Cyclone Narelle is not to blame for that wet weather.

"South of the cyclone, we have this mid-level trough which is bringing a whole lot of rainfall around the metro area ... so while it is raining in Perth at the moment, it's not to do with Narelle, it's a completely different weather system," Ms Lingard said.

BOM's Jessica Lingard has told ABC Radio Perth the system would likely remain at category three strength into tonight.

"The forecast is that it does now start to take more of an inland track ... but it'll be slow to weaken (and) still be a category three system as it moves to the east of Denham and Shark Bay this evening," she said.

"As it does move inland, usually what we expect is the strongest winds would be on the coastal parts but with this system, the strongest winds are actually on the eastern flank of the cyclone."

 Cyclone Narelle has sent a wheelie bin flying down a residential street in Exmouth.

Towns in WA's north have begun to assess the damage and clear away debris.

City of Karratha deputy mayor Jodie Swaffer says the town managed to escape with only minor damage from the cyclone, with safety inspections of the city's buildings now underway.

"Crews are out there doing a fantastic job," she told ABC Radio.

"It was a pretty big system ... we did see a fair few trees and other things come down."

A picture shared on the city's Facebook page showed extensive damage to a road. 

Some Exmouth residents are starting to safely leave their homes to assess the damage.

Fallen trees, scattered debris, and damaged properties are just the start.

We will see the full damage bill as the day goes on.

Exmouth man Mason Watts says conditions are starting to ease in the town.

"It's starting to back off now," he said.

"Wind is slowly easing. Water is subsiding. Our workshop, Exmouth Service Centre, has been decimated.

"Powerlines in the alleyway are down. Fences down. Our house is solid, just full of water."
