Groundwater levels in Deane and Ashe are high but continue to slowly fall. In the last week, the level in Oakley has fallen by 30cm. In Deane, we expect a small number of properties to be affected by cellar flooding. Septic tanks will be struggling to operate effectively. Over the next 10 days, the weather is expected to be mostly dry. Groundwater levels will continue to slowly fall. If the weather forecast next week looks favourable, this Flood Alert will be removed. We continue to monitor the levels and forecast. If you have pumps to help reduce water levels, please ensure that they can operate. This Flood Alert will be updated by 18:00 on Monday 07/04/2025.
