The public is advised to continue monitoring the radio for further advisories and to avoid
areas that are at risk from flooding and landslides. Also, take the following precautions in
the event of heavy rains:
1. Be ready to evacuate if you live in low-lying or flood-prone areas. Decide on likely
evacuation routes now.
2. Avoid flooded waterways, i.e. Fording, gullies, streams or rivers, either on foot or in
vehicles.

The ODPEM will continue to monitor the situation and further updates will be provided as
the situation demands.
