Description


Activation time (UTC): 2022-01-30 02:19:00

Event type: Flood (Riverine flood)

Activation reason:
Australia is currently experiencing a prolonged rainfall event across large areas of the Continent. This ongoing weather pattern is resulting in large areas of flood inundation within Northern Territory, South Australia, Queensland and New South Wales. There are currently numerous flood watch warnings issued for rivers and their catchments throughout these states and territories. Transport infrastructure has been destroyed or impacted due to the rain events, and critical supply chain roads remain underwater.
