Riverine flooding information for Mountain River above Glen Road Bridge. See the Plan for Huonville- Ranelagh for the area below Glen Road Bridge

Version 1.0 August 2024

Mountain River and its tributaries can cause flooding to low lying properties around Mountain River community and surrounds. Flooding can isolate surrounding areas to the West of the river including Crabtree and Lucaston. Depending on local rainfall, Mountain River’s tributaries may also flood the Huon Hwy and nearby areas south of Grove.

The map shows flooding that has a 1% chance of happening any year (1% annual exceedance probability (AEP)). You are likely to experience a flood of this size at least once in your lifetime.

Flooding in the area is due to high rainfall on kunanyi/ Mount Wellington or local heavy rainfall. The area is subject to flash flooding. This means there may be unexpected flooding without warning if heavy rain falls. Some properties may also flood without warning due to storm water run-off when there is very heavy rain.

Flooding around Mountain River is likely to only last a few hours.  Due to the short catchments, once rain stops, waterway flows will drop.  However, there may be debris or trees over roads, damage to bridges and other infrastructure as flood waters move quickly through the area.

Areas near Mountain River below Glen Rd bridge may also be affected by flooding from the Huon River – see the related Huonville/ Ranelagh flood guide.

您有洪水風險嗎?

The Mountain River area has most recently had major flooding in May 2018 and August 2022. Such levels of flooding are likely to happen again.

我應該做什麼?

  • Check the map opposite to see whether your home or business is likely to be at risk of flooding during a flood.
  • Prepare a Home Emergency Plan, including whether you need to evacuate in advance of a flood, where you will go and what you need to take. See 為緊急情況做好準備 – 為個人和家庭準備應急措施的指南。. 
  • If you have a business in the area, you should have a plan that covers flooding.  Business Tasmania can help– see www.business.tas.gov.au/manage_a_business/ 
  • If you need to evacuate or return home during a flood, make sure your route is safe.
  • Asses your home or business and know what you need to do to prepare it to minimise possible damage from water inundation.

Floods like the one shown on the map, or worse, will occur again. No two floods are the same.

如果您居住在低窪地區或靠近水道,您的房屋可能會被淹沒。即使您的住所安全,您也可能需要繞過淹水地區,或者您的道路通行可能會被阻斷。切勿駕車進入或身處洪水之中。道路和橋樑可能會被沖毀或不安全。洪水期間請避免出行。.

知道該怎麼做可以拯救你的生命並保護你的財產。制定家庭緊急計畫是最好的準備方法之一。決定天氣和降雨的觸發條件,以便採取行動。.

中央氣象局預報、警報與觀測

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. Even if there were a gauge, the short length of the catchment means that this would not give enough warning time. 

Whenever 大雨 is expected in an area that may lead to flooding, the Bureau issues

  • Severe Weather Warning, and/or
  • Thunderstorm Warning for heavy rainfall that may lead to flash flooding.

The time between the warning and heavy rain falling can vary from an hour to 24 hours or more. It is best to act on the warnings from the Bureau of Meteorology rather than wait for local flooding alerts around Mountain River.

Tracking Rainfall on Kunanyi/ Mount Wellington can help predict flooding around Mountain River. Go to www.bom.gov.au/tas/ .

Mt Koonya Radar is useful to see when and where heavy rainfall is falling and is available on the BOM Weather app and website.

Download BOM Weather app and set your location to receive push notifications of warnings (more details at www.bom.gov.au/app/) .

Flood levels around Mountain River

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

The rainfall amounts that might cause such an event are examples. Other levels of rainfall can cause flooding depending on

  • where the rain falls
  • how heavy the rain is
  • how long the rain lasts, and
  • how wet the ground is beforehand.

小範圍淹水

  • Water spills over riverbanks and covers nearby low-lying areas.  Agricultural and horticultural land on river flats may be at risk.  Livestock should be moved from these areas.
  • There may be some flooding of minor roads, tracks and low level bridges.
  • Some low lying properties may have flooding around buildings below floor level.

中度洪水

  • There is 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.
  • Flooding may reach above floor heights of some low lying houses and other buildings, particularly near Mountain River and surrounding waterways.
  • Some properties above low-lying bridges may become isolated.

嚴重洪水

  • Most of the Mountain River crossings may be impassable due to flooding or should be considered hazardous. This can isolate areas to the west of Mountain River. The new Lollara Road bridge is probably the least likely to become flooded.
  • Low lying properties along Mountain River and possibly other minor waterways are at risk of being flooded above floor level. There may not be enough time for sandbagging. It may be necessary to evacuate some dwellings.
  • There is likely to be significant crop and stock loss unless the stock are moved to higher ground.
  • Depending on where heavy rain falls, the Huon Highway south of Grove may be inundated for a short time.
  • Many roads are likely to have areas that are flooded. Please think about the safety of your route if you need to leave due to rising flood waters.

了解你的風險,做好準備,盡可能降低風險,與他人聯繫,保持警惕並安全行動。.

洪水之前

為緊急情況做好準備 – 為個人和家庭準備應急措施的指南。. 

1. 認識你的風險

塔斯馬尼亞經常發生洪水,可能造成廣泛且嚴重的損害。在過去 200 年裡,塔斯馬尼亞有 78 人死於與洪水相關的事件。本指南旨在幫助您了解您所在地區的洪水風險。.

2. 準備您的家戶

制定包含風暴和洪水應變計畫

思考一下在風暴或洪水來襲時你會怎麼做,意味著你準備得更充分,每個人都會更安全。制定一個家庭中的每個人都理解的緊急計畫。有檢查表可以幫助你思考你的計畫——請參閱 為緊急情況做好準備 – 為個人和家庭準備應急措施的指南。. 
定期檢查您的計劃,並讓家中的每個人都設想一次可能影響您家的洪水情況來進行測試。.

準備一個緊急救生包

準備好了

  • 電池供電的收音機和手電筒,備用電池
  • 重要資訊,例如您的緊急應變計畫
  • 緊急電話號碼列表
  • 食物和水
  • 急救箱
  • 橡膠手套或堅固的皮革手套

需要時打包

  • 暖和的衣服、結實的鞋子或靴子
  • 藥品、眼鏡或其他必需品
  • 手機和充電器
  • 寵物食品和他們需要的任何其他東西
  • 照片和特別紀念品
  • 重要文件,例如
    • 保險文件
    • 護照與
    • 出生證明

定期測試收音機和手電筒的電池。.

3. 在可能的情況下,降低您遭受洪水侵襲的風險

  • 在購買、維護或開發房地產時,請考慮風暴、洪水和其他災害。.
  • 修剪或移除您家中、商家或您家附近有電力線的樹木和樹枝。.
  • 保持您的排水溝和排水管暢通。.

4. 與他人建立聯繫

認識你的鄰居並參與你的社區。一個緊密的社區,在緊急情況下更安全、更有韌性,並有助於每個人在事後更好地恢復。檢查家人和鄰居是否安全,並了解正在發生的事情。.

See for example the Huon Valley Good Neighbour project.

期間

5. Keep up to date

隨時留意周遭狀況。定期查看天氣預報、觀測數據和警報。. 

6. Act Safe

  • 監督兒童.
  • 為可能的停電、停水或斷網做好準備。.
  • 檢查您的緊急救助包是否已準備就緒。.
  • 切勿靠近淹水區域,例如排水溝。. 永不 在洪水中有行走、玩耍、骑行或开车。你無法確定水下有什麼,或水有多深、流速有多快。20公分的湍急的洪水就很容易將人沖走並淹死。洪水可能很危險。.

您的房屋可能發生淹水時

  • 將家居物品放在高處,以盡量減少潛在損壞。.
  • 如果安全的話,請關閉水電和瓦斯。. 
  • 一種防止污水倒灌回屋內的好方法是將沙包放入塑膠袋中,然後用它們來堵塞馬桶、蓋住排水孔和水槽。.
  • 趁你還能安全脫困時趕快離開。.

如果你需要疏散

  • 請遵循 SES / 塔斯馬尼亞警方的建議。.  
  • 帶上你的緊急求生包。. 
  • 前往朋友或家人較安全的地方,或前往疏散中心。. 
  • 讓別人知道你去了哪裡。.

照顧好你的動物

在緊急情況下,您有責任照顧您的動物。如果您有寵物和其他動物,在洪水或其他緊急情況下,疏散的時間會更長。在洪水可能上漲之前,請及時將牲畜移離易受洪水影響的地區。更多資訊請參閱

請避免在風暴期間和風暴之後旅行

  • 不要去觀光。觀光客會延誤緊急服務並造成事故。.
  • 注意危險,例如
    • 路面积水
    • 損壞的電力線
    • 山崩
    • 損壞的道路
    • 倒下的樹木或屋頂鐵片。.
  • 切勿駕車通過淹水區域。洪水中的大多數死亡和救援事件都與駕車通過淹水區域有關。.
  • 緩慢行駛,並在不受洪水影響的道路上打開頭燈。.

之後

  • 請持續收聽 ABC 地方電台的最新消息、道路重新開放、社區會議等資訊。.
  • 如果您離開家,請勿在聯邦緊急事務局 (SES) 或塔斯馬尼亞警方告知您安全之前回家。.
  • 注意道路上的危險,例如路面上的泥沙或碎屑、道路/橋樑損壞以及正在進行清理和修復工作的工人。.

如果您的房屋已受損

  • 在檢查損壞時,請待在地面。小心掉落的樹木、碎玻璃、鬆動的屋頂或其它危險物品。.
  • 穿著堅固的靴子、手套和防護服。. 
  • 請使用手電筒,切勿在受洪水影響的建築物內使用火柴或蠟燭。. 
  • 將所有飲用水煮沸,直到被告知自來水再次安全為止。.
  • 在經註冊電工或燃氣技師測試安全之前,請勿開啟電力或燃氣。.
  • 如果您的房屋受損,需要暫時住在其他地方,請攜帶您的緊急應變包和寵物一同前往。
  • 如安全,請拍攝任何損壞的照片,並聯繫您的保險公司。.
  • 監督兒童.
  • 檢查鄰居是否安好。.

免責聲明

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.
