Floods Hit Adelaide’s Northern Suburbs | Adelaide News
Description
Floodwaters surged through Adelaide’s northern suburbs this weekend, sweeping away two cars and forcing rescues as three people were trapped in their vehicles. Heavy rain drenched sports clubs, including the Athelstone Football Club, which had to cancel a game due to lightning and rising waters. Key intersections like Port Wakefield Road and Salisbury Highway became hazardous as wetlands overflowed, triggering road closures. Emergency crews handled over 500 calls as officials warn against ANY travel through floodwater — it’s deeper and faster than it looks. Lenswood recorded over 100mm of rain since Friday night, with river levels spiking and minor flood warnings issued for areas like the Bremer River. More extreme weather is forecast — stay alert, stay safe.
