Heavy rainfall over the past 48 hours has inundated parts of the Pilbara, leading to rising water levels in several rivers and flooding roads. Severe thunderstorms brewing in humid conditions resulted in a deluge, prompting a rapid rise in water levels in the Oakover, Nullagine, Shaw and Coongan rivers. Several roads and the Karijini National Park were closed and flood warnings were put in place for Marble Bar, Telfer and Nullagine.
A woman, aged in her 70s, had to be rescued on Saturday afternoon after she become stranded while driving across flood waters on Marble Bar Road, about 40km from the town. She was described as in “good health” and DFES personnel had managed to recover her car from the waters using their fire appliance. Despite being renowned for its extreme heat, Marble Bar can experience significant rainfall and flash flooding, particularly during the wet season.
