Water levels are still rising, which is causing flooding in low lying roads, parkland, and nearby properties. In some areas, flooded roads could limit access, and a small number of properties may see water approaching homes.
For your safety:
• Avoid rivers, streams, and other watercourses where flows are high
• Stay well back from shorelines, as banks may be unstable
• Parents and caregivers: please talk to children about the dangers and supervise them closely near all waterbodies
