Around 500,000 people in Sydney and its surrounding areas have been told to evacuate or prepare to flee floodwaters as torrential rain lashes an extraordinarily long stretch of the Australian east coast.
Hailstones 5 to 6 centimeters wide pounded the town of Inglewood, 270 kilometers southwest of Brisbane, early Thursday, the Bureau of Meteorology said.to the Queensland state coast 500 kilometers north of the capital Brisbane last week and a south-moving low-pressure system had since brought the rain south of Sydney.
In New South Wales, a 54-year-old man was found Friday in a submerged SUV in Matcham, 90 kilometers north of Sydney. Several Brisbane suburbs remain flooded after the river that snakes through the city center peaked on Monday. “We’ve got high winds and of course we’ve got the potential for flash flooding because of the already sodden ground out there,” Cawcutt told Nine Network television.“Because of the saturation, creeks are rising very, very quickly — drains, stormwater areas, water is bubbling up from below ground so it’s right across Brisbane,” Cawcutt added.
