River watch 6.45pm – most Hawkesbury River gauges falling or steady, says BOM
Evening everyone. We don’t know exactly what tomorrow will bring but at the moment according to BOM, our local river levels are steady or falling. Now, some of that will be due to tidal action, but at least they’re not going up at the moment.
Most are also below minor flood level just now, though BOM is still saying minor to moderate flood risk for the Hawkesbury, and heavy rain is expected Saturday and Sunday.
Here are the latest current river details, with times and river heights.
And we’ll see what tomorrow brings us.
Do feel free to share any local knowledge of parts of the river you know, and we’re always keen to share some of your pictures so everyone can get a well rounded look at what’s happening.
We’ll be keeping an eye on any further developments this evening and all through the weekend.
