Sydney hit by heaviest rains in decade

Recommended Posts

SYDNEY: In just one hour, 88 millimeters (3.46 inches) of rain fell over parts of Sydney on Saturday night, causing a large tree to fall and damage two houses.

The storm dumped one of the largest amounts of rain on the Australian city in a decade, local media reports said, with the weather bureau is predicting more rain over the weekend.

An elderly lady had just returned home from hospital when her roof caved in due to the downpour.

"I heard a little noise and I thought it was somebody out here doing something, and then, next thing I heard this crash coming down and it was the ceiling coming down. I couldn''t believe my eyes," said resident of the house, Marie Carrol.

Firemen are assessing the damage to the house.
