Daily River Murray flows crossing SA border reach levels not seen since 1970s as date for first peak

South Australia's latest River Murray forecast shows the peak is likely to reach Renmark later than previously predicted, with the community already experiencing daily flows not seen since 1975.

When the peak arrives around December 14, the flows are likely to be between 170 and 180 gigalitres a day, with a lower probability of 220 gigalitres a day.

A second peak is expected between Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.

Premier Peter Malinauskas said despite the delay in the forecast peak, river levels are already high.
