flag Macquarie University studies NSW flood warnings post-2025 floods, aiming to improve alerts after delayed evacuations harmed farmers.

flag Macquarie University is studying flood warning effectiveness in NSW’s Manning, Macleay, Hastings, and Nambucca catchments after May 2025 floods, following reports like dairy farmer Kevin Schlenert’s, who lost 70% of his herd after receiving a late evacuation alert. flag The research, led by Associate Professor Fiona Miller, examines how warnings are received, trusted, and acted upon, with a focus on improving alert systems, including proposals for riverbank sirens. flag Residents affected by the floods are invited to share experiences via survey or interview to help shape future emergency responses, with support available. flag Meanwhile, a flood warning remains in effect for the Northern Territory’s Daly River catchment due to Cyclone Narelle, with major flooding expected to persist.
