Sydney could receive up to 130 millimetres of rain on Friday alone, with the worst of the weather set to hit the city by the afternoon and evening

Sydney and much of the state's coast have been drenched by torrential rain on Friday, as an intense trough delivered a reprieve from months of heat and catastrophic bushfire conditions.

The city's drenching began in earnest about 10pm on Thursday, and by 7am on Friday 54.2 millimetres of rain had already been recorded at Sydney's Observatory Hill.The coastal trough, which at about 6am was near the northern NSW coast, is expected to deepen and gradually shift southwards, increasing rainfall along the central and southern parts of the coast and adjacent ranges during Friday and over the weekend.

The bureau has issued a severe weather warning for damaging winds and heavy rainfall for the Northern Rivers, Mid North Coast, Metropolitan and parts of the Hunter, Illawarra, Central Tablelands and Northern Tablelands forecast districts.

Can someone summon Grater Thunderbum to a conference on flooding? Just give her three months to get here. She'll be walking!

can’t wait to see all of the ‘catastrophic super cell mega flooding’ on the ABC this weekend ... 😳😳😳

Considering the SMH blamed the fires on Scomo are they going to thank him for all this rain.

Let it rain!!!!😁😁

Great news re: reduction in active fires. Only 42 to go!

The REAL story is that the MEDIA purposely SCARED the kids into believing it would never rain again, that Australia will BURN and that all the animals will DIE. Experts have LIED about so MANY things over the last few YEARS: Trump/Brexit/Morrison/Tories/CLIMATE etc. Report THAT.

Okay, guys, we already know what the next news is... Flooding Flooding Flooding

Does this mean climatechange is fixed? Or will we see the rain spun into a “wet climate catastrophe” hysteria?

I hope it'll clear the air from the smoke
