NSW is set to cop an end-of-week drenching with Sydney rivers on flood watch and warnings of significant rainfall south of Sydney.
The weather bureau says six-hourly rainfall totals of between 50 and 90mm are likely and isolated totals of 120mm are possible in areas covered by the severe weather warning. For 24-hourly rainfall totals, between 100 and 150mm are likely with isolated totals of 250mm possible. “At the moment, there are three flood warnings in place for eastern NSW. All of these are minor flood warnings for St Georges Basin and then the Cooks River near Sydney, and a little further north away from today’s heavy rainfall for the Hastings River.”
The bureau said the incoming deluge is due to a surface trough moving off the South Coast that was predicted to deepen on Thursday in response to the upper low over NSW. A humid south-easterly flow, south of the trough will bring extra moisture. These weather factors will come together to bring showers over NSW.
