More wild weather on the way as Sydney floods
The Australian Bureau of Meteorology has warned that more wild weather is on the way, as flooding hits Sydney
One person has died following torrential rain, flash flooding, and damaging winds.
The weather crisis has forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate their homes, with warnings more wild weather is on the way.
The Emergency Services Minister says “this is a life-threatening emergency situation”.
In a matter of 24 hours, there have been 83 flood rescues.
Major roads have been cut off and people are being warned to evacuate before it’s too late.
Experts say the floods have been worsened by climate change and a La Nina weather season.
While the east coast low which sparked the deluge has weakened, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) is still forecasting up to 120mm of rain in the harbour city.
The SES is warning residents in low-lying areas near the Hawkesbury River downstream of Wisemans Ferry, north west of Sydney, to evacuate.
Closer to the city, people in some parts of Penrith, North Richmond and Windsor have been warned they may need to leave.
It’s the third time this year many of the areas being inundated.
Australia’s multimillion-dollar campaign to attract Hollywood productions to its shores appears to be paying off.
The allure of Australia lies not only in its picturesque locations but also in its competitive financial incentives.
The government offers generous rebates and tax breaks to international productions, making it an attractive proposition for filmmakers looking to maximise their budgets.
Despite the recent intake of Hollywood productions down under such as ‘The Fall Guy’ and ‘Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga’, Aussie independents are still finding the space to carve their own creative path.
Rob Fantozzi joined the program to discuss the latest in Hollywood, and showcased his own upcoming project – ‘Omerta‘. #featured
