Australia’s most populous state of New South Wales on Sunday issued more evacuation orders following the worst flooding in decades.
The New South Wales State Emergency Services said it responded to 640 calls for help on Saturday night, including 66 for flood rescues.
Evacuation orders have been issued at multiple locations on the Mid North Coast in the northeast of the state.
A resident of Taree, some 300 km (185 miles) north of Sydney, said heavy rains had hit overnight.
Reports say parts of Western Sydney are being hit by a one-in-50-year weather event, with some locations recorded more than 300 milimeters (11.8 inches) of rain since Friday morning, breaking records.
The Warragamba dam, west of Sydney, started overflowing on Sunday and so far, 13 evacuation centers have been opened across the state. More evacuations are expected as the bad weather is forecast to last into the middle of the week.
Local authorities are urging people not to drive through flooded areas as they could get easily swept away by the strong currents.
