Upper Goulburn · Flow and release outlook

Goulburn–Murray Water updated its Lake Eildon release schedule at 8:30 am on Monday 9 November 2026. It confirms a sharp increase from 5,500 ML/day on Sunday to 8,000 ML/day on Monday, followed by forecast releases of 8,500 ML/day on Tuesday and Wednesday. A reduction to 8,000 ML/day is forecast for Thursday and 6,500 ML/day on Friday.

These figures refer to releases from Lake Eildon. Conditions farther downstream are influenced by travel time, tributary inflows and the shape of the river. A release figure alone cannot tell you whether a particular corner is safe to boat or wade.
