FURTHER HEAVY RAIN AND LOCALISED FLOODING POSSIBLE IN PARTS OF THE FLOOD WATCH AREA OVER COMING DAYS During the last several days, a tropical low has slowly moved from the south west Kimberley towards the Interior of Western Australia. In the West Kimberley, for the 4 days ending 18th February, around 300 mm of rain was recorded at Broome Airport and surrounding areas near the Roebuck plains. Although rain has since eased in the west Kimberley, flooding of low lying areas remains. Elsewhere in the Sandy Desert and north eastern parts of the Salt Lakes District Rivers, areas of heavier rainfall remain possible around the low. This may result in areas of localised flooding and adversely impact road conditions. Some roads may become impassable and communities linked by roads may become isolated. Catchments in the Flood Watch area are relatively wet due to recent rainfall. The situation will be monitored closely and Flood Warnings will be issued as required.
