ADVICE TO THE PUBLIC:

RIVER AND CREEK LEVEL RISES AND LOCALISED FLOODING EXPECTED ACROSS THE FLOOD WATCH AREA

Ex-Tropical Cyclone Dianne is moving eastwards along a trough over the Tanami District, leading to an increase in thunderstorms and rainfall across the Flood Watch area. Ex-Tropical Cyclone Dianne is forecast to weaken over the next 24 hours and the trough will move northwards on Wednesday.

Catchments in the Flood Watch area are gradually wetting up with recent rainfall.

Moderate to heavy falls are likely within the Flood Watch area. Widespread daily rainfall totals of between 15-30 mm are likely, with isolated daily falls in excess of 55 mm are possible.

River, creek, and stream level rises are likely with heavy rainfall, as well as overland inundation and areas of localised flooding across the Flood Watch area.

Many roads, including secondary highways, are affected. Some communities and homesteads may become isolated. Check road conditions before travelling.
