Residents in Sydney’s southwest are under evacuation orders as New South Wales’ southern and central coast areas continue to battle relentless driving rain.

Flood warnings were issued for areas south and west of Sydney while residents and businesses in low-lying parts of suburbs including Camden, Wallacia, Liverpool, Georges Hall, Chipping Norton, Lansvale and Moorebank were told to get out before they got cut off by rising waters.
