Tens of thousands of Australians fled their homes and authorities evacuated a hospital on Wednesday as torrential rains continued to batter the country's east coast, APA reports quoting Reuters.
Eleven people have died since the extreme weather arrived late last week, submerging town centres, unmooring homes and cutting power lines.
The wild storm cell has been making its way down from Queensland state into neighbouring New South Wales (NSW) and is expected to hit Sydney, home to more than 5 million people, later on Wednesday.
