8 June 2024
Heavy falls bucketed down on Sydney and surrounding areas, as a surface trough lingered over the coast to close the week.
While the rain is expected to ease today, flood risks remain after the dam supplying 80 per cent of the city's drinking water, began to spill, posing downstream flooding threats.
Thirteen 13 flood rescues were conducted in the 24 hours to 5am this morning, responding to close to 300 incidents.
