For example on Sunday, rain is expected across most of the state, with 50 to 100mm possible in the northeast and 30 to 50mm for the remainder of the east and the western tiers (See attached picture). It is likely that an initial flood watch will be issued on Friday. Minor to moderate flooding may occur in the South Esk, North Esk, Macquarie and Meander rivers from early Sunday onwards. There is still a lot of uncertainty about how much and where the rainfall will occur, so please keep this information for internal usage only until Bureau issues warnings and watches. Please check latest rainfall forecasts (http://www.bom.gov.au/jsp/watl/rainfall/pme.jsP), rainfall and river observations (http://www.bom.gov.au/tas/flood/) and warnings (http://www.bom.gov.au/tas/warnings/) from our website. You can also use MetEye (http://www.bom.gov.au/australia/meteye/) to check on expected winds, temperatures and rainfall totals for the next few days.

    GREAT WESTERN TIERS AND MEANDER VALLEY Destination Action Plan 2017-2020 June 2017 Acknowledgments The development of the Great Western Tiers and Meander Valley Destination Plan has been facilitated by Tourism Northern Tasmania with the support of the Department of State Growth. The process brought together representatives from all stakeholder groups that benefit from the visitor economy; local government, state government agencies, industry and the community, to develop a plan. This Plan seeks to identify the challenges and opportunities facing the Great Western Tiers and Meander Valley – and to establish achievable affordable priorities that if delivered would increase the competiveness of the destination.
