abc.net.au/news/bom-forecasts-more-flooding-heavy-rainfall-in-nt-top-end/102027188More alerts for flooding and severe weather have been issued for parts of the Northern Territory's Top End region, as residents at one remote outstation are calling to be evacuated by the NT government after running out of food.
While the wet weather is easing in certain areas, including Katherine where minor flooding was forecast last week, the BOM has warned of more to come elsewhere. "Rainfall is generally easing, but there's a lot of water flowing through the Daly River system at the moment, so rivers are rising." Mr Lynch said a handful of communities were expected to be particularly hard hit, and warned of flash flooding or 100-kilometre an hour winds."In the next 24 hours, we're anticipating a tropical low to deepen to the south of Wadeye, so we're expecting a period of quite heavy rainfall and squally winds across Wadeye, Peppimenarti, Palumpa and Timber Creek tonight," he said.
