🌊 Floodwaters are dangerous — but don’t just take our word for it. Here’s the maths. ➕⚠️
Every time the water speed doubles, the force of the water multiplies by 4! Imagine what that could do to a person or a car! 🚶‍♂️💧🚗

That means what looks shallow can still be deadly.
Floodwater risk = depth + speed + hidden hazards
🟰 serious danger
And it’s not just the water you can see. Floodwater can hide:
🕳️ washed-out roads
🌿 debris
⚡ contamination
🚧 damaged surfaces

So if you come across floodwater:
🔁 Turn around
🚫 Don’t drive through
🚶 Don’t walk through
🚲 Don’t ride through
No destination is worth the risk.

Yass SES sends our thoughts to the families, friends, and colleagues who have all been impacted by last night’s tragedy in Ballina.

We extend our deepest condolences to everyone at Marine Rescue NSW. Volunteers from Marine Rescue have paid the ultimate sacrifice whilst helping members of the community. This tragic event reminds us of the dangers emergency service workers face daily and the loss of fellow volunteers is felt sincerely across the entire emergency services community.

Yass SES also acknowledges the life lost in the incident they were responding to. We extend our deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of all involved.

We honour the selfless dedication of those who serve, always putting their communities before themselves.

Thank you for your service - Rest in Peace.

☀️ While the weather is looking great, now’s the perfect time to get storm-ready!

Take a few minutes this weekend to:
🧹 Clear out your gutters
🌿 Trim back any overhanging branches
🏡 Secure loose items around your home

A little prep now can make a BIG difference when severe weather hits ⛈️💨
Stay safe and be prepared, Yass district! 💛

Heading away this ANZAC Day long weekend? Don’t forget to check the weather before you hit the road! 🚗

While severe weather is not expected over the next few days, it’s important to stay informed - not just about the conditions at home, but also at your destination.

⚠️ Roads will be busier with double demerits in play, so ensure you drive to the conditions.

📲 Stay safe and prepared by downloading the Hazards Near Me app or checking the NSW SES website for the latest warnings.

Enjoy the long weekend, but remember: safety first, always!
