‘WELL, that happened quickly!’
That’s the feeling around NSW this afternoon after a beautiful, hot spring day turned into a storm for the ages.The Bureau of Meteorology warned that, at 4pm, severe thunderstorms were detected on the weather radar near Fairfield and Horsley Park. These thunderstorms are moving towards the east. They are forecast to affect Blacktown, Parramatta, Bankstown and Liverpool and Sydney Airport, Sydney Olympic Park and the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Damaging winds are likely.
The wild weather has already left a trail of destruction in parts of NSW leaving trees down, sparking a house fire and keeping emergency services busy.
The State Emergency Service (SES) has logged about 420 jobs since the storms swept across the Sydney area on Saturday afternoon.
