Flooding expected. Take action now.
River levels have now started to fall following yesterday's heavy and persistent rainfall. Although wintery showers associated with Storm Darcy are expected throughout today, 07/02/2021, until midnight tonight, river levels are not expected to rise significantly. We are closely monitoring the situation. Please remain vigilant as catchments remain very wet. Please avoid using low lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded. This message will be updated in 8 hours, or as the situation changes.
