Heavy rain brings flash flooding to Sydney
Heavy rain and wild weather has caused flash flooding across Sydney.
The eastern suburbs and north shore were among the worst affected areas as a low pressure system swept across the city on Sunday afternoon, bringing with it downpours and strong winds.
The Illawarra and Hunter Valley regions were also hit.
The State Emergency Service (SES) said it received almost 600 calls for help dealing with flash flooding and leaky roofs.
