What are we expecting?
The Bureau of Meteorology advises a prediction
Based on predictions from the Bureau of Meteorology, the following areas may be impacted by dangerous floodwater:

Once the flood water reaches 20 metres, expected at 6:00 pm Wed 22 Jul, safe evacuation routes are likely to be cut off. If you remain in the area, you may become trapped without power, water, internet and other essential services and it may be too dangerous for NSW SES to rescue you.
What you need to do:

- Consider the consequences of road and bridge closures and water over roads and make alternate arrangements for work, children, and travel.
- Plan your route carefully to avoid flooded roads and allow extra travel time.
- Obey all signs about road closures and instructions from emergency services.
- Avoid storm drains and pipes, ditches, ravines and rivers.
