The death toll from widespread flooding in country WA has risen to two with the body of a 74-year-old man discovered by his family members.
Anthony 'Tony' Reid's car was seen submerged under the Jerdacuttup Bridge in the Goldfields-Esperance region on Sunday morning, sparking aerial and land searches.
Police say his relatives discovered him three kilometres south of the South Coast Highway on Tuesday morning.
Mr Reid's family released a short statement through police thanking searchers.
"The family would like to thank the Ravensthorpe Police, local farmers, and SES for their assistance in the search," it reads.
"The family asks that their privacy be respected at this time."
The body of 68-year-old Charles Boyes, who drove his car onto a flooded road in Gibson, north of Esperance, was recovered from a creek on Saturday.
Kevin Scott, a long-term family friend of Mr Boyes, told the Esperance Express he was a "larrikin" and full of fun.
He had crossed the creek, which runs through his property, three times earlier that day.
"I think the best message to get out there - no matter how much and how well you know the water running across the road, don't take the chance until you know for sure it is safe to cross," Mr Scott said.
The state's southern coast was hard hit by the flooding, swamping highways and cutting off the town of Ravensthorpe for three days, while a bridge near Albany was washed away.
Minor flooding also affected the Perth metropolitan area and warnings for large parts of the state remained in place on Tuesday night.
Vineyards in the Swan Valley region to the city's northeast have been inundated, with some grape growers estimating losses of $200,000.
"It's devastating," Ambrook Wines' Mickele Amonini said after river banks burst next to his West Swan property.
The region was among large parts of the state declared a natural disaster zone by Premier Colin Barnett on Monday, meaning affected growers can access grants and low-interest loans.
WA opposition leader Mark McGowan urged consumers and supermarkets to support the region's producers.
"It is a time for West Australians to pull together and when we do the shopping - and Coles and Woolies take note - make sure you support local producers," Mr McGowan told reporters on Tuesday.
He also called for swift and efficient processing of disaster recovery claims.
"We need to deal with that as quickly as possible so people aren't left waiting for support."
Stagnant water in the region is causing a fresh headache as mosquitoes breed.
