Australia news live: ABC boss warns journalists over WhatsApp risks – The Guardian

NSW SES has responded to 430 incidents in past 24 hours as official warns of ‘significant’ rain to come Debbie Platz, the deputy commissioner of NSW SES, just gave an update about the weather situation across the state. She told ABC News: This system is very widespread and … already we’ve had significant rain right up and down the east coast of New South Wales, but also significant rain inland as well … That’s going to bring with it flash flooding and renewed riverine rises. Previously to this event, we had a system go through probably 10 days ago, and that system is still causing flooding along the Namoi and Barwon rivers. Platz said the state is in for “significant” rainfall, saying it’s possible that in the Sydney area and in the north more than 100mm of rain is forecast, with some areas possibly seeing up to 120mm.
