Residents in the Warragamba Dam catchment are on high alert and may have to evacuate as the primary reservoir of water supply for Sydney overflows.

The heritage-listed Warragamba Dam, located about 70 kilometres from central Sydney, started spilling mid-afternoon on Saturday, as rain continues to batter parts of NSW.
