This alert expired on 10 May 2026 at 06:15 UTC. It is kept here as a record.

It is the 28th strongest of the 91 detections recorded within 20 km of this point since 30 April 2026. The last comparable one was on 9 May 2026. 11 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.

This data is aggregated algorithmically from scientific sources. Not a replacement for official emergency warnings.
