We need your help to map recent flooding across the Cassowary Coast.
Did you experience flooding during the 2023 Tropical Cyclone Jasper or the February 2025 flood events? If so, we want to hear from you.
We’re updating our regional flood model to ensure the community has the most up-to-date information to better prepare for flooding and build a more resilient region.
Flood models help us understand how floods behave: where water may flow, how deep it could be, how fast it moves and how long flooding may last during different events.
To make sure the model reflects what actually happened on the ground, we’re asking the community to share photos, videos, flood marks or observations from these recent events.
Your first-hand experiences will play an important role in improving the model, alongside new data, technology and changes to the region since 2014.
📍Using our interactive map, you can drop a pin, upload your information and contribute directly.
This update is the first step in developing a flood risk assessment plan, which will guide how Council prepares for and manages flooding into the future.
Submissions are open until 30 April 2026.
