Final Flood Warning for the Ovens and King Rivers
From 10:32am Thu 16 Jul to 1:32pm Fri 17 Jul
WANGARATTA PEAKING JUST BELOW MINOR FLOOD LEVEL, NO FURTHER FLOODING EXPECTED
Rainfall across the Ovens and King River catchments last weekend resulted in renewed river level rises across the catchments. This caused minor flooding along the King River at Docker Road Bridge, where river levels are now below the minor flood level and falling. Further downstream the Ovens River at Wangaratta is peaking just below the minor flood level and will ease over the next few days.
