圣玛丽洪水指南

Riverine and flash flooding information for Newmans Creek, St Patricks Creek, and St Marys Rivulet at St Marys 

要更详细地查看地图，, 查看塔斯马尼亚战略洪水地图.

St Marys is subject to flash flooding from St Marys Rivulet and its tributaries, particularly Newmans Creek and St Patricks Creek. The map shows the expected 1% Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) Flood level in St Marys. You are likely to experience a flood of this size in your lifetime. 

In a major flooding event, roads in and around St Marys are likely to be cut and some areas inundated. If you need to evacuate, you should leave early, before flood waters rise. Note the school in the area may become isolated due to flood waters. Listen to ABC local radio for warnings and advice. 

In such flooding events, the St Marys area may be isolated due to flooding of the Esk Main Road, Main Street and Story Street. Minor roads may also be cut by flooding, landslips or fallen trees. It is dangerous to drive through flooded roads, particularly in isolated areas.

即使您的房屋没有被淹没，在洪水退去之前，您也可能被隔离数日。您应储备最多三天的补给，并准备好应对电力和通讯中断。请注意，如果被隔离，您可能无法获得所需的医疗或其他援助。.

您有洪水风险吗？

  • St Marys has a long history of significant flooding, including in 1926,1929 and 2010.
  • A series of floods during 2016, with a major flooding event in January and further significant flood events occurring in June and November.

我应该怎么做？

  • 请查看地图，了解您的住宅或商户是否可能面临洪水风险。.
  • 检查您在洪水期间是否可能无法安全地到达您的家、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。. 
  • 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。.

澳大利亚气象局天气预报、警告和观测

The Bureau of Meteorology (the Bureau) issues a 洪水观察 当预测一两天内可能发生洪水时，洪水监测可能 

  • be for a specific area such as St Marys, or 
  • be generalised such as for North-East river basins or East Coast forecast district. 

The Bureau issues a Severe Weather Warning for very heavy rain that may lead to flash flooding whenever this weather is occurring or is expected in an area. The amount of time between the warning and the arrival of the heavy rain can vary from an hour to 24 hours or sometimes more.

Neither the Bureau nor SES issue Flood Warnings with specific flood heights for the St Marys Rivulet as there is no flood gauge within the catchment to provide warnings of flood heights.

The Break O’Day Council has a Flash Flood Warning System that issues warnings of expected flash flooding events from monitored rainfall stationswithin the catchment area (at Gray and St Patricks Head). The system issues SMS text or email alerts for:

  • 5% AEP flood event – a “Moderate” Flood event
  • 1% AEP flood event – a “Major” Flood event
  • Conditions Easing.

每一次洪水都不尽相同。像地图所示那样或更严重的洪水还会再次发生。.

如果您居住在低洼地区，您可能会面临洪水风险。即使您的家是安全的，您也可能需要绕过被淹没的区域。切勿驾车穿过或进入洪水区域。.

了解该怎么做可以挽救你的生命，并保护你的财产。制定家庭应急计划是最好的准备方式之一。.

在您的家庭应急计划中包含天气和降雨触发行动的项目。.

Flood levels at St Marys

While no two floods are the same, the following table shows what you can expect at different flood levels around St Marys. Even if your property is not flooded, you need to think about access routes. 

A minor flood means:

  • River channels may fill and spill over into some low-lying areas. 
  • Wombat Walk and the Bicycle Park at Groom Street, areas can be inundated.
  • Flood waters do not reach building floor levels but may impact some buildings below floor level.
  • Livestock should be moved from low lying land.
  • Main Street near The Flat intersection and The Flat near the St Marys Rivulet bridge starts to have shallow water over the roadways.

A moderate flood means:

  • Spill over riverbanks and cover larger areas of land, impacting some homes and other buildings. 
  • Gray and Harefield Roads start to have shallow water over the roadways.
  • Shallow water depths around impacted properties, above floor level flooding of residences is unlikely.
  • Areas may be isolated from the town such as:
    • Harefield Road
    • Gray Road
    • St Marys School
    • Properties along The Flat
    Stock downstream of Story Street may need to be moved.
  • Close traffic routes such as:
    • Story Street through to Harefield and Gray Roads, and to Elephant Pass Road.
    • Main Street near the intersection with The Flat.
    • The Flat.

A major flood means:

  • Widespread flooding isolating St Marys, plus significant flooding of homes and other buildings.

  • More buildings inundated, above floor level flooding of some residences.
    There may be utility outages (power, water, sewerage etc).
  • Residences within inundation areas along Main Street, Story Street, Groom Street, Aulichs Lane and The Flat should be evacuated.
    Residents of Irish Town Road may become isolated.
  • Closed major roads:
    • Access to the town from the south, east and west likely to be closed.
    • Residents to the east of the bridge over St Marys Rivulet on Main Street may become isolated.

了解风险，做好准备，尽可能降低风险，与他人联系，保持警惕，并安全行事。.

洪水之前

了解您的风险

塔斯马尼亚州经常发生洪水，可能造成广泛而重大的损失。在过去的 200 年里，塔斯马尼亚州有 78 人死于与洪水有关的事故。本指南旨在帮助您了解您所在地区的洪水风险。.

2. 准备您的家庭

制定涵盖风暴和洪水的应急计划

考虑一下在风暴或洪水来临时你会怎么做，这意味着你会有更好的准备，每个人都会更安全。制定一个你的家庭成员都明白的应急计划。有一些清单可以帮助你完善你的计划——请看 做好应急准备 – 个人和家庭应急准备指南。. 
定期检查您的计划，并让家中的每一位成员都模拟可能影响您家庭的洪水场景进行演练。.

准备一个应急包

准备好了

电池供电的收音机和手电筒，备用电池

重要信息，例如您的应急计划

紧急电话号码列表

食物和水

急救箱

橡胶或结实的皮革手套

视情况打包

保暖衣物、结实的鞋子或靴子

药品、眼镜或其他必需品

手机和充电器

宠物食品以及它们所需的其他任何物品

照片和特别的纪念品

重要文件，例如
保险文件
– 护照和
出生证明

定期测试收音机和手电筒里的电池。.

3. 在您能力范围内减少洪水风险

  • 在购买、维护或开发房产时，请考虑风暴、洪水和其他危险。.
  • 修剪或移除您家中、商铺上方或您物业附近电线上方的树木和树枝。.
  • 保持雨水槽和排水沟畅通。.

4. 联系他人

认识你的邻居并参与社区活动。一个联系紧密的社区在紧急情况下更安全、更有韧性，并且有助于每个人在事后更好地恢复。检查家人和邻居是否安全，是否了解正在发生的情况。.

于

5. 跟上时代

留意周围发生的事情。定期查看预报、观测和警报。. 

理解警告和关键信息

 建议 (黄色): 事件已发生。无即时危险。请保持关注，以防情况发生变化。. 
观察并行动（橙色）： 威胁级别有所提高。情况正在变化，您需要立即开始采取行动来保护您和您的家人
紧急警报（红色）： 紧急警报是最高级别的警报。您可能面临危险，需要立即采取行动。任何耽搁都可能危及您的生命。. 
社区更新（蓝色）： 关于特定事件或事件，受影响社区的具体信息和最新动态。.
事件（白色）： 事件是事件在成为紧急情况警告之前的最初发生。一旦报告了事件，TasALERT 就会发布基本信息，包括事件的类型和地点。.

6. 注意安全

  • 看管好孩子。.
  • 为应对可能的电力、供水或网络中断做好准备。.
  • 检查您的应急包是否已准备好。.
  • 避开积水区域，如排水沟。. 永不 在洪水期间徒步、玩耍、骑车或驾车。您无法分辨水下有什么，也无法判断水深或水流速度。在仅 20 厘米的快速流动的水中，很容易被冲走并溺水。洪水可能很危险。.

当地面发生洪水时

  • 将家用物品放在高处以最大程度地减少可能的损坏。.
  • 如果安全的话，请关闭水电煤气。. 
  • 一种防止污水倒灌回家的好方法是将沙袋放入塑料袋中，然后用它们堵住马桶、覆盖排水管和水槽。.
  • 趁还能安全离开就走。.

如果您需要撤离

  • 遵循 SES / 塔斯马尼亚警方 的建议。.  
  • 带上你的应急包。. 
  • 去安全地点或避难中心与亲友会合。. 
  • 让别人知道你去了哪里。.

照顾好您的动物

在紧急情况下，您有责任照顾好您的动物。如果您有宠物和其他动物，在洪水或其他紧急情况下疏散需要更长的时间。在洪水可能上涨之前，将牲畜转移到易受洪水影响的地区。欲了解更多信息，请参阅

暴风雨期间及之后避免出行

  • 不要去观光。游客会延误紧急服务并造成事故。.
  • 注意诸如
    • 路面积水
    • 受损的电力线
    • 山体滑坡
    • 损坏的道路
    • 倒下的树木或屋面板。.
  • 切勿冒险涉水。洪水中的大多数死亡和救援事件都与驾车涉水有关。.
  • 在未受洪水影响的路段，请慢行并打开车头灯。.

之后

  • 请继续收听 ABC 本地广播电台的最新消息、道路重新开放信息、社区会议等。.
  • 如果您离开了家，在紧急事务管理署（SES）或塔斯马尼亚警方告知您可以安全返回之前，请勿回家。.
  • 注意道路危险，例如路面上的泥土或碎屑、损坏的道路/桥梁以及正在进行清理和维修的工作人员。.

如果您的房屋遭到损坏

  • 在检查损坏时，请留在地面。注意倒下的树木、碎玻璃、松动的屋顶或其他危险。.
  • 穿结实的靴子、手套和防护服。. 
  • 在受洪水影响的建筑物内部，请使用手电筒，切勿使用火柴或蜡烛。. 
  • 饮用水必须煮沸，直到被告知自来水安全为止。.
  • 在经过持证电工或燃气技师安全检测前，请勿开启电源或燃气。.
  • 如果您的房屋受损，需要住到别处，请带上您的应急包和宠物。
  • 如果安全，请拍摄任何损坏的照片并联系您的保险公司。.
  • 看管好孩子。.
  • 检查邻居是否安好。.

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.
