NSW floods: Evacuation orders, warnings for Lismore, Murwillumbah, Tweed Heads as rescues underway

Residents of Lismore city and areas around Murwillumbah and Tweed Heads are ordered to evacuate as floodwaters threaten towns and properties in northern NSW.

The SES has ordered residents of Lismore CBD, North and South Lismore to leave immediately after the weather bureau advised overnight rain would push Wilsons River to 11 metres by Friday morning.

“Do not delay your evacuation. Roads will be congested or closed. You could become trapped and need rescue,” an SES warning said.

People who need assistance are advised to go to an evacuation centre at Southern Cross University on Military Road in East Lismore.

Lismore has a population of more than 25,000.
