Balanced News: Flood fears replace fire woes as rain soaks Victoria

Victoria has downgraded fire warnings after a day of dangerous blazes, but now faces flood warnings in eastern regions. The most serious flood warning is for the Acheron River at Taggerty, with fears it could reach a moderate flood level of 2.6 meters. The Goulburn River catchment experienced significant rainfall, potentially cutting off communities in east Gippsland. A low pressure system is expected to bring widespread rain, thunderstorms, and damaging winds. Cooler temperatures will follow, but a minor flood warning remains in place for the Yarra River in Melbourne.
