Rainfall is expected to be less in winter, but there is likely to be bigger downpour events in summer. Wollongong has been dealing with flooding for many years, so we are in a strong position to deal with future flooding impacts. Our adaptation actions focus on continuing this good work and making sure stormwater networks are maintained to handle storms and we are equipped to respond to flood emergencies. We also need to help our community to understand and prepare for flooding events.
