ADVICE TO THE PUBLIC:
RENEWED MINOR FLOODING POSSIBLE AT BESWICK BRIDGE WEDNESDAY MORNING
Recent moderate to heavy rainfall associated with Ex-Tropical Cyclone Narelle has caused river level rises and flooding across the Waterhouse River and Roper River catchments. After a moderate flood peak along the Waterhouse River at Beswick Bridge early Tuesday morning, river levels fell below the minor flood level Tuesday evening. Further rainfall observed overnight Tuesday into Wednesday is likely to cause renewed river level rises, with renewed minor flooding possible at Beswick Bridge Wednesday morning.
Further showers and thunderstorms are forecast during Wednesday which may cause further river level rises. The situation is being monitored and this warning will be updated as required.
A Flood Watch remains in place for parts of the Top End.
