Woman killed by falling tree branch in NSW storms as landslide and flood warnings issued for Sydney

[Worrisome Wo]

OMG u guys this storm is insane ! I mean idk how ppl expected it to pass without any major issues considering its like the super summer in Australia not winter lol . But seriously, all these ppl affected by flood & landslides my heart goes out 2 them . Why cant we just have a peaceful summer in Aus?

Ppl who got rescued from floodwaters need serious support n care medical bills r gonna be crazy right now . Also, major flooding in Queensland sounds scary too . I'm watching these updates nonstop rn can't believe it's the Aussie open weekend & ppl have to deal w/ this .

Stormy weekend ahead, better stay indoors & avoid travel unless u gotta! Narrabeen Lagoon flooded overnight, poor souls stranded in their homes NSW SES got slammed w/ over 1k calls for help

this is so scary ... people losing their homes and stuff ... the storm is so powerful ... i hope everyone stays safe and dry ... why do these things happen? ... australia is always getting hit with crazy weather ... but we gotta stay strong and look out for each other

Ugh this is so rough for those in NSW 1,400 calls from the SES? That's crazy! Glad they were able to rescue most of those who got stuck in floodwaters tho And poor folks losing their homes to landslides . Praying everyone stays safe and dry for now ️

Ugh dont blame the storm it's just nature doin its thang. People need to be more prepared for these types of situations. I'm shocked at how quickly the SES got out there and helped all those people. Like, seriously, 20 rescues in one night? That's some good stuff . And yeah, the damage is pretty bad, but destruction happens . The thing is, we need to be more supportive of each other instead of blaming individuals or the environment. Let's just focus on rebuildin and movin forward .

Ugh, can't believe what happened in NSW . So many people affected by this disaster... and all the hype around "smart" storm systems that couldn't prevent it . I mean, isn't it just common sense to warn people before a massive storm hits? It's not rocket science! Anyway, hope those who lost their homes get the help they need . And can we talk about how overhyped this "weather forecasting" is? Like, 60mm of rain in one spot? No big deal... until it's your house getting flooded .
