24.01.2022 While conditions in Northern Tablelands have eased, the gusty winds have not.

22.01.2022 COVID-19 and hay fever share some similar symptoms. This means it may be difficult to tell the difference between them. If your child has any COVID-19 symptoms... (even if you suspect it’s just their first allergy attack of the season), talk to your GP about getting your child tested for COVID-19. If the test result is negative and symptoms persist, ask your GP about a management plan during the COVID-19 pandemic. https://www.health.nsw.gov.au//frequently-asked-questions.
