This alert expired on 20 September 2026 at 01:15 UTC. It is kept here as a record.
It is the 3rd strongest of the 12 detections recorded within 20 km of this point since 27 March 2026. Another comparable one was recorded here earlier the same day. 5 more were recorded here in the fortnight before it.

Safety Information
During flooding: never walk, swim, or drive through floodwaters. Six inches of moving water can knock you down, and one foot of water can sweep away a vehicle. Move to higher ground if waters rise. After flooding, avoid contact with floodwater which may contain sewage, chemicals, or debris. Follow local emergency service guidance.
Series begins 8 March 2026. Comparisons refer to that period only. Collection gap: 14-26 August 2026.
