Flood Update - Tuesday 1 March 2022: Ballina Shire

We are expecting a peak around 9pm tonight which will be 2.5 AHD which is approximately half a metre higher than the water level this morning.

This will mean that all of Ballina Island will now experience some inundation and it is expected that this level will stay up for a longer period of time as it is not as dependent on the tides.

For any members of the comunity who need assistance please contact SES on 132 500 or in an emergency or life threatening situation please contact 000.
