Riverine flooding information for the Huon River and tributaries at Huonville and Ranelagh townships

Version 1.0 August 2024 – 请参见PDF版本

要更详细地查看地图，, 查看塔斯马尼亚战略洪水地图.

Huonville and Ranelagh are subject to flooding from:

• The Huon River
• Mountain River
• Skinners Creek

The maps show the expected 1% annual exceedance probability flood level in Huonville and Ranelagh. You are likely to experience a flood of this size at least once in your lifetime.

Huon River gauges at Tahune Bridge, Judbury, and Huonville measure real-time river levels and support flood forecasts and warnings for Huonville and Ranelagh. Other information comes from a network of real-time rainfall gauges. For flooding along the Huon River, the Bureau of Meteorology and the State Emergency Service will issue warnings that predict flood heights and timing at Huonville. These may be expressed as Minor, Moderate, and Major and/or give specific flood heights in meters.

Heavy rain in the South West wilderness can cause the Huon River to flood, and there is generally 6-12 hours warning time of flooding from the Huon River around Ranelagh and Huonville.  Rapid snowmelt sometimes enhances Huon River flooding.   High rainfall lower in the Huon River catchment and its tributaries can also add to flooding.

Mountain River and Skinners Creek are subject to flash flooding. This means there may be unexpected flooding without warning if heavy rain falls in and around Huonville.

Parts of Huonville and Ranelagh may also flood without warning due to storm water run-off when there is very heavy rain.

您有洪水风险吗？

The Huonville area has a long history of major flooding, including in 1901, 1947, 1958, 1960, 1975, 1996, 2016 and 2022. The area often has minor flooding.

我应该怎么做？

• 查看地图，了解您的住宅或商家是否可能发生洪水。.

• 评估您的住宅或企业，并做好准备以最大程度地减少潜在的洪水损害。.

• 洪水期间，检查您是否能够安全地到达家、工作地点或学校。.

• 准备家庭应急计划。考虑是否需要在洪水来临前撤离。参见 做好应急准备– 个人和家庭应急准备指南。.

• 如果你是初级生产者， 农场防洪应急包 为洪水提供准备建议，以帮助保护您的企业和库存。.

• 如果您经营着企业或其他机构，请查看塔斯马尼亚州政府的 应急准备企业 在线工具

• 如果您可能被隔离并且必须获得服务，您可能需要提早撤离。.

• 如果您在易发洪灾的地区露营，请务必随时了解情况，如果可能发生洪水，请及早转移到高地。.

像地图上显示的洪水，或者更糟糕的情况，将会再次发生。没有两次洪水是相同的。.

如果您住在低洼地区或靠近水道，您的房屋可能会被淹没。即使您的家是安全的，您也可能需要绕过洪水地区，或者您的道路通行可能会受到阻碍。切勿驾车进入或进入洪水区域。道路和桥梁可能被冲毁或不安全。请避免在洪水期间出行。.

了解该怎么做可以拯救你的生命并帮助保护你的财产。制定家庭应急计划是准备工作的最佳方法之一。决定天气和降雨触发条件，以便知道何时采取行动。.

澳大利亚气象局天气预报、警告和观测

The Huon River has several real-time river gauges and a network of rainfall gauges that can support flood warnings.  Floodwater at Judbury generally takes a couple of hours to reach Huonville. Monitor rainfall totals and river rises at www.bom.gov.au/tas/flood/ .

每当预计会有可能导致休恩河（Huon River）沿岸发生洪水的降雨时，气象局就会在河水达到特定水位时发布警报。.

河道水位站	报警	未成年	适度	主要
哈里森开口处的休恩河	5.0	5.0	无	无
塔霍恩桥胡恩河		4.0	5.0	6.3
朱德伯里休恩河	3.0	4.0	5.3	6.0
霍恩维尔的霍恩河	2.5	3.0	3.6	4.0

Mountain River can rise quickly after rainfall and so there can be little to no warning of flooding.  There are no river gauges on Mountain River nor Skinners Creek.

每当 大雨 在可能发生洪水的地区，该局发布

• 恶劣天气警报和/或
• 雷电暴雨预警，预计将有强降雨，可能引发山洪暴发。.

从发出预警到大雨降临之间的时间间隔可能从一小时到24小时或更久不等。最好根据气象局（Bureau of Meteorology）的预警采取行动，而不是等待山河（Mountain River）和斯金纳斯克里克（Skinners Creek）周边的当地洪灾警报。.

追踪惠灵顿山（Kunanyi/Mount Wellington）的降雨量有助于预测山河（Mountain River）周边的洪水情况。前往 www.bom.gov.au/tas/ .

这 库尼亚山雷达 当强降雨发生时、何处发生以及其大致位置，都可以在 BOM 天气应用程序和网站上查看，非常有用。.

Flood levels around Huonville

While no two floods are the same, the following table shows what is likely to happen if there is flooding around Huonville. Even if your property is not flooded, you need to think about access.

可能导致此类事件的降雨量仅为示例。其他降雨量也可能导致洪水，具体取决于

• 雨落之处
• 雨有多大
• 雨会持续多久以及
• 地面事先有多湿。.

Minor flooding – over 4 metres @ Judbury / 3 metres @ Huonville

• Spill over riverbanks and cover nearby low lying areas.
• Causes minor flooding of agricultural and horticultural land along the river flats with some stock losses unless moved. Livestock should be moved from low lying areas near waterways.
• Can close the Channel Highway at Huonville
• Can inundate some minor roads, paths, tracks and low level bridges.
• May come up through drains in nearby streets.
• Affects low lying backyards and buildings below floor level.
• Covers riverside parklands, camping areas and may affect the caravan park.

Moderate flooding – over 5.3m @ Judbury / 3.6m @ Huonville

• Causes more extended and deeper flooding of agricultural and horticultural land along the river flats with some stock losses if not moved and damage to fences.
• Will close the Channel Highway at Huonville
• Spill over river banks and cover larger areas of land.
• Is likely to flood low-lying areas of Huonville with the possibility of water damage to some properties.
• May reach above floor levels in some houses and buildings, particularly along the Esplanade.
• Some properties should be evacuated.

Major flooding – over 6 metres @ Judbury / 4 metres @ Huonville

Huonville and surrounds have a 5-10% likelihood of experiencing such a flood in any year. A major flood will:

• Cause widespread and potentially damaging flooding of agricultural land, particularly in low lying areas.
• Water is likely to enter some commercial premises along Main Road to the south of the roundabout and surrounding areas unless preventative measures are taken eg sandbagging
• Affect utility services (power, water, sewage etc).
• It may be necessary to evacuate the occupants of some dwellings.
• The Huon Highway between Wilmot Road and Huonville Bridge may need to be closed, isolating multiple areas south of Huonville
• Is likely to have similar consequences to the flooding in June 2016, when flood peaks reached 6.5 metres at Judbury and 4.3 metres at Huonville.

Major flooding – approx. 5.1m @ Huonville

The type of flood that has a 2% chance of happening any year (current climate). Judbury water levels are likely to be around 8.9m. Flooding would likely extend north from the roundabout and affect surrounding areas, with flooding about 80cm higher than in 2016.

Major flooding – approx. 5.5m @ Huonville

The type of flooding that has a 1% chance of happening in any year (current climate). Everyone should be prepared for such an event. Judbury water levels are likely to be around 9.5m. Large areas of Huonville will become inundated, for example

• about 1.7m deep around Short St
• about 1.4m deep around the Huon Valley Council Chambers
• about 65cm deep around the roundabout
• about 15cm deep around the Huonville Library
• Areas not inundated may become isolated, including:
  • All areas South of the Huon River
  • Areas to the West of Main Road around Sale Street
  • Ranelagh and surrounds may be isolated for short periods if Mountain River is flooded.

Skinners Creek flooding

Recent works around Skinners Creek helps mitigate flood risks in surrounding areas. However, flooding may still happen in severe rain events, particularly if there is debris washed down from areas above. If Skinners Creek overtops, Sale Street and some surrounding properties may become flooded.

Huon Valley Council’s mitigation works mean that this extent of flooding is now unlikely with the same level of rainfall. However, people in this area should be aware that there may be some flooding in the area during severe rainfall events.

Mountain River flooding

If Mountain River floods, the areas most at risk of flooding include the caravan park plus nearby Glen Road and Wilmot Road. Ranelagh and surrounding areas may become isolated for a short time as Glen Road and access roads to the north may be inundated, however the new Lollara Road bridge is not likely to be overtopped unless it is an extreme event.

If Mountain River floods at the same time as the Huon River, this will lead to higher flooding in these areas and Huonville.

For flood information for areas upstream of Ranelagh, please see the Mountain River area flood guide.

免责声明

The maps show potential flooding risks from consistent levels of rainfall across catchments, such as a 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP). In flooding events, rainfall is likely to be more inconsistent across a catchment, so these flood maps should be considered indicative only. The mapped areas of flood risk show higher probability of inundation. Other areas have lower probability of flooding, but in severe and rare events (rarer than 1%AEP), other lower areas may be also at risk of inundation.
