Council closes the gate to the river: see flood pics and send us yoursPhotos by Heidi Bone.

Minor and moderate flooding is nothing new to Lismore residents, so when Lismore Council workers closed the levee gates on the river this afternoon, it was just another flood event for those seasoned to it.

Levee operations update: move cars from riverside carparks



The rain has eased, the sun is out and the humidity is high - but with water still arriving in the catchment from areas north of Lismore, the river is tipped to peak later today.

Wilsons River may peak at 8.2m early Wednesday morning


The Lismore App will keep you updated on any changes to weather and flood warnings as issued by the authorities as they come in - and please send us any updates and photos of flooding on roads, in parks, in your area. We love your contributions.


The Rowing Club carpark is under water - not an unusual sight if you've been in Lismore for a while.




Riverside Park is looking very wet this afternoon.
