The area is currently experiencing localised thunderstorms. As a result, small, flashier rivers and streams may respond to this heavy rainfall. We expect this pre-emptive alert to be in force until tomorrow morning, 18th August 2022. Given the unpredictable nature of thunderstorms, there is low confidence in the exact locations, timings and impacts of rainfall at this point. Areas most at risk are low lying agricultural land, roads and footpaths close to small rivers and streams. Water levels could rise rapidly and potentially generate deep, fast flows. We are closely monitoring the situation. Our incident response staff are patrolling watercourses in the area and clearing weed screens. Please avoid using low-lying footpaths near local watercourses and plan driving routes to avoid low-lying roads near rivers, which may be flooded.
