Some good news…yesterday’s prediction of Saturdays weather system has moved further south and is now forecast to be centred around the Port Macquarie – Taree area. In the Tweed area, the rainfall prediction is for 10-30mm tomorrow (Saturday), with possible isolated pockets of double this, and the system will move quickly to the southeast into Sunday.
The soil moisture level in our area is now average to above average, with an estimate of an initial loss of 40mm (rainfall that will be absorbed into the ground). Therefore, all or most of the predicted rainfall will soak in and not ‘run-off’.
No floodwatch or flood warnings are expected for the Tweed River system.
