19.01.2022 SEVERE WEATHER WARNING FOR HEAVY RAINFALL AND THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY NIGHT. HEAVY RAINFALL which may lead to FLASH FLOODING may develop over parts of western victoria from early MONDAY EVENING, extending to central parts late MONDAY EVENING into TUESDAY MORNING.

Move vehicles under cover or away from trees. * Stay indoors and away from windows. * If outdoors, move to a safe place indoors. Stay away from trees, drains, gutters, creeks and waterways. * If driving conditions are dangerous, safely pull over away from trees, drains, low-lying areas and floodwater. Avoid travel if possible. * Stay safe by avoiding dangerous hazards, such as floodwater, mud, debris, damaged roads and fallen trees. * Stay away from fallen powerlines - always assume they are live. * Stay informed: Monitor weather warnings, forecasts and river levels at the Bureau of Meteorology website, and warnings through VicEmergency website/app/hotline.

03.01.2022 A reminder that even with COVID-19 restrictions in place, DHHS has confirmed you can leave your home if you are impacted by an emergency. Think about where you would go, how you would get there and plan for that now.

03.01.2022 VICSES is preparing for what could be a very wet Spring. We know a significant flood event is the last thing Victorian’s need in 2020, but we certainly need the Victorian community to prepare for the possibility over the coming months. We’re paying particular attention to late September and throughout October.... Know how to be ready for a flood before it happens. Know what you will do and where to get up to date information. You may not get an official warning to act. http://www.ses.vic.gov.au/get-ready
