FLOODWATERS ARE RECEDING in Sydney and its surrounding area as heavy rain threatened to inundate towns north of Australia’s largest city.
Evacuation orders and official warnings to prepare to abandon homes were given to 60,000 people for today, down from 85,000 yesterday, New South Wales state premier Dominic Perrottet said.
But towns including Maitland and Singleton in the Hunter Valley, north of Sydney, were still threatened by inundation, Perrottet said.
Around 50 rescues were made in the past 24 hours, several of which involved people stranded in cars in floodwaters, he said.
Emergency services minister Steph Cooke said record-breaking rain that began around Sydney on Friday last week was easing.
“It is very pleasing to see that the weather situation is starting to ease after almost a week of relentless rain,” she said.
The weather system that had brought heavy rain to a vast swathe of New South Wales was moving further from the coast out to sea north of Sydney, said Bureau of Meteorology manager Diana Eadie.
Bulga, a town about 110 miles north of Sydney, experienced its highest flood level since 1952, she said.
Taree, some 200 miles north of Sydney, was drenched by 12 inches of rain overnight – almost a third of the town’s annual rainfall average, Eadie said.
It’s my body. It’s my choice.
Only if you are over the age of 18.
They want to regulate absolutely everything in this country.
Please leave people alone to make their own choices.
Health services should be regulated.
Yeah, everyone should be allowed to do anything they want and employ anyone who calls themselves a doctor to perform any procedures. You only have to do a bit of research on the internet.
Yeah, and nobody should have to pay for anything.
We already have laws to protect consumers. We already have taxes. We already have regulations.
People are just constantly demanding ever more regulations on everything. It feels like some people just want you to lock yourself away in your house and never to leave to do anything. Regulations are suffocating businesses.
If I trust my dentist enough to inject Botox into my face, I should be allowed to ask him.
A tattoo artist is allowed to inject ink into people’s faces but can’t inject Botox.
The state often have to foot the bill for fixing botched cosmetic surgical procedures. They have every right to try and reign it it
That’s because ink isn’t botulism
Incredible situation when a surgeon can operate and then leave the country . Introduce mandatory residency & registration , otherwise there will be no accountability . Remember ;” it s not the procedure but how one copes with the complications that define you .”
Hello Everyone,
At every point in your life, you’ll need money for one thing or the other: starting or expanding your business, paying bills, settling debts, fixing your damaged vehicle, paying your rent, and so on. Unless you’re a multi-millionaire, you’ll always have one or more expenses waiting to consume every penny you earn.
The reality is that there are times when you just won’t have the money when you need it so badly. In such instances, you have a number of options: ask your friends and family for assistance, sell some of your assets at giveaway prices, or take a loan. If you’re like most people, you would definitely prefer taking a loan.
