River level data

Information on Western Australia river levels, sourced from departmental river monitoring stations, is available for viewing in tabular form or in graphical form.

The river monitoring stations pages provide summary and graphical presentations of river levels and some additional parameters including rainfall from selected telemetered sites throughout Western Australia. Telemetered sites have satellite, GSM, CDMA or modem equipment that allows you to download the latest data from the site to a central location. Usually each site is downloaded once a day, but it is downloaded more frequently during times of flooding.

Current river level advice

River level advice, when issued by the department, will be listed in PDF format below. Please see the Bureau of Meteorology web site for general flood warnings.
