Safety & River Disclaimer

⚠️ IMPORTANT NOTICE: Rivers are dynamic natural environments with unpredictable hazards.

All river levels (m), discharge estimates (m³/s), activity suitability scores, and weather indicators provided by Riverable Australia are for informational and recreational planning purposes only.

Real-time telemetry from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) Water Data Online network is provisional and subject to continuous sensor calibration, telemetry lags, and environmental disturbances such as sudden catchment rainfall surges, dam releases, and tidal influences.

Never rely solely on automated online scores to make water safety decisions. Always visually inspect river sections, weirs, and current strength before entering, consult official Bureau of Meteorology flood warnings and State Emergency Service (SES) alerts, be aware of submerged snags and cold water shock risks, and wear an approved PFD lifejacket when paddling.
