Australia – Record rains and widespread flooding prompted evacuations along Australia’s east coast Saturday and filled Sydney’s main reservoir to overflowing for the first time in 30 years, officials said. Authorities warned of potentially “life-threatening” flash floods as the torrential rains pummeled a vast coastal region already soaked by an unusually wet summer. Police said hundreds of people had flocked to evacuation centres in areas north of Sydney in New South Wales state, and they expected many more to seek shelter as the rains moved south down the coast. Towns in the area have already seen record rainfall of more than 400 millimetres since Friday morning, the bureau said.
