NSW SES's Allison Flaxman says there's a potential for flash-flooding to hit parts of NSW on Friday April 5, 2024 as upwards of 100mm falls. Video via AAP.
00:00 In relation to damage to people's houses, it's usually leaking roofs if it's just a storm event.
00:07 And if it's a flooding event, obviously, then the whole house could be flooded out.
00:13 We can also expect, from the wind that we may potentially get with this, trees to be uprooted
00:20 to actually come down on homes or cars or roads, which actually impacts infrastructure.
00:27 In relation to flooding and our normal infrastructure, we will do what we can to protect that infrastructure ahead of time.
00:34 So that's where our sand banking comes in to play around, and we've got electricity stations and infrastructure to keep that going for as long as we can.
