All other areas should be partly cloudy and warm with a chance of showers that could be thundery in places. *IMPACTS* Flooded rivers remain a potential hazard; even if it has not rained heavily in the area, heavy rains may have occurred upstream Heavy downpours may give rise to flash flooding leading to treacherous road conditions. Lightning is a major threat during this part of the year, being inherent in thundershowers. *ACTIONS TO TAKE* Avoid crossing rivers or streams of unknown depth; even if it has not rained heavily in the area, it might have done so upstream. 30cm depth of fast-flowing water can sweep away large vehicles. Heavy rains may reduce visibility; if driving, please find somewhere safe to park till the rains subside. Avoid contact with water or metal objects including farming equipment when lightning is visible, even from a distance. Umbrellas are not safe during storms, raincoats are better, best is to be indoors. *WEATHER OUTLOOK FOR TUESDAY 07 FEBRUARY 2023:* Afternoon and evening thunderstorms should persist in areas along and to the north of the Main Watershed and localised downpours remain are possible.
