MELBOURNE - Australian authorities issued evacuation orders as heavy rain lashed Sydney and the east coast of the state of New South Wales on Monday, bringing chaos to the country’s largest city while dousing bushfires that have raged since November.
The NSW State Emergency Service received over 2,700 calls for help overnight, with the number of calls since last Wednesday topping 10,000, SES spokesman Andrew Richards said. The Bureau of Meteorology warned that heavy rain could lead to life-threatening flash flooding for the south coast of New South Wales and also said there could be wind gusts of more than 90 km per hour .
