Flooding of low lying land and roads is possible, especially in the area around Shaw. We do not currently anticipate property flooding. Today will be predominantly dry, with further rain forecast on Thursday. We expect river levels to remain high for the next few days.

We are closely monitoring the situation.

Avoid using low lying footpaths and any bridges near local watercourses.

This message will be updated by 12:00 04 Feb 2026 or as the situation changes.
