IN PHOTOS: Malakas na ulan at pagbaha sa New South Wales

Matapos ang masamang panahon at matinding pagbaha, naka-amba ang malakihang paglilinis ng mga residente ng New South Wales.

Dozens of warnings remain active across the state, as many towns still face flood warnings from the torrential downpour.

Malakas na pag-ulan at matinding hangin ang nagdulot ng pinsala sa mga pamayanan sa kanluran ng Sydney, na may umaapaw na mga ilog na patuloy na nagbabanta sa mga kabahayan sa lugar.

Pinapayagan ng bumalik ang mga residente at may-ari ng negosyo habang sinusuri ang laki ng pinsala sa kanilang mga ari-arian matapos makaranas ng 200mm hanggang 250mm ng ulan sa loob ng 24 oras.
Sinabi ni Dallas Burnes, ang Pangunahing Superintendent ng NSW State Emergency Services o SES, na ang paglilinis ng estado ay magiging "mahalaga".

"We have seen the highest peak and we’re now following that water downstream and making sure we warn the communities in its path," sinabi nito sa Weekend Today ng Channel Nine.

Ang masamang panahon ay nagdulot ng mga landslides, flash flooding, at pagkalubog sa baha ng mga kabahayan, kung saan aabot sa 200 rescue ang isinagawa ng mga emergency service workers.

Narito ang mga larawan ng malakas na ulan at matinding baha:
