The maps in this guide show the likely peak extent of flooding that has a 2%, 1% and 0.5% chance of happening in any one year (known as Annual Exceedance Probability, or AEP).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Major flooding over roads and bridges could cut off Ouse from other towns. Some properties near the river in Ouse could flood. Rural areas around Ouse can flood, impacting livestock, fences, equipment and lives. The Ouse River can rise quickly when Lake Augusta begins to overflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are likely to be road closures during a flood in this area, including parts of the Lyell Highway near<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ouse,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wayatinah,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tarraleah,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Derwent Bridge and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>other locations.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Ellendale could be cut off with several roads flooded. The Wilderness Hotel in Derwent Bridge could be cut off. Campgrounds and parks in the area are likely to flood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Miena, Brady\u2019s Lake, Dee and Fentonbury are unlikely to be affected by flooding, but there may be power and internet cuts and flooded roads isolating these communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is another flood guide for Bothwell to Hamilton and areas around the River Clyde.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In your lifetime, you are likely to experience flooding such as that shown in the maps. Tasmanians need to prepare for flood events that may not happen often, as well as the minor flooding they may have experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if your home is not inundated, you should be prepared for isolation and potential power and telecommunications outages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Travel in the area may be difficult or impossible until roads are clear.&nbsp; If you are safe at home or elsewhere, it is usually best you stay where you are until the flooding subsides, unless there is an emergency. If you need to evacuate, you should leave early, before flood waters rise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen to ABC local radio 936AM for warnings and advice, but please note that radio coverage may be poor in many parts of this area.
