00:00 I'd like to thank the residents of the Northern Rivers and the Northeastern Zone more widely

00:04 for listening to our advice and taking appropriate action, and for particularly not driving,

00:09 riding or walking through any floodwaters with the rain that we have seen.

00:13 We are still in storm season and we may still see some thunderstorm activity overnight,

00:18 which may see some isolated heavy rainfalls within our area, which may lead to some river
