NSW SES has responded to more than 500 incidents as widespread rainfall and thunderstorms impact northern and eastern parts of the state. 🌧️ Flood rescue operators, along with partner emergency service personnel, have completed seven flood rescues across the Central Coast and Mid North Coast. The majority have involved cars that became trapped in floodwater as flash flooding inundated roads quickly. 🚘❗Steer clear of floodwater. If you come across a flooded road, turn around and find an alternative route. Heavy rainfall is forecast to continue for parts of the Hunter, Mid North Coast and adjacent districts this afternoon, before easing later today. 📲 Stay across the latest warnings and advice by downloading the Hazards Near Me app and setting up a watch zone for your local area. ☎️ If you need assistance during storms or floods, call the NSW SES on 132 500.

Communities across northern and eastern NSW are being urged to monitor conditions as NSW SES responds to widespread rainfall and thunderstorms 🌧️ During this rain event so far, we have responded to more than 240 incidents. Here’s what we’re expecting over the next 48 hours: 🔸 Rainfall is forecast to increase across the Mid North Coast, Upper Hunter and adjacent districts from early Thursday evening. 🔸 The severe weather is expected to spread south through the Mid North Coast, and Hunter on Friday. 🔸Rainfall is expected to ease late Friday afternoon/evening but severe thunderstorms may also bring the risk of damaging winds and large hail until Saturday. 🚘 The risk of localised heavy rainfall brings the possibility of flash flooding. Flash flooding can occur quickly and without much warning. If you come across a flooded road, turn around and find an alternative route. ⚠️ Minor flooding is possible along the Orara, Manning and Gloucester, Bellinger, Hastings, Paterson and William Rivers and parts of the Hunter River from Thursday into Friday. 📲 Keep an eye on all warnings as they go out by downloading the Hazards Near Me app or by visiting the NSW SES website. 🏠 Ensure your home is prepared by tying down loose items, parking away from trees and powerlines, trimming branches and clearing your gutters.
