NSW SES Assistant Commissioner Dean Storey says there are a number of evacuation orders in place across areas in southwest Sydney.
“It’s a very dynamic and dangerous weather situation we’re currently experiencing.
That’s set to continue through the rest of today, overnight, and to tomorrow,” he told Sky News Australia.“Be aware, remain vigilant, monitor those local forecasts and conditions and always listen to the advice and heed those warnings from the SES and other local authorities.”
