    NSW waits for 'worst storm' of the month

    Residents of NSW coastal areas are bracing for what threatens to be the most dangerous of three major storms to hit the state this month.

    Cyclonic winds up to 125km/h and huge waves were forecast to batter the coastline from tonight and into Wednesday, starting at Moruya in the state's south and moving north

    Well, it was a wild night but not as bad as expected.

    Storm slams NSW coast, some roads closed

    A large storm off the coast south of Sydney is bringing destructive winds, heavy rains, damaging surf and snow to large parts of NSW.

    The extreme weather has forced road closures in and around Sydney.

    The deep low pressure system well east of the Illawarra coast is expected to move southeast later this morning, with the edge of the cell affecting the state's coast.

    The worst conditions, with hurricane force winds, are still well out to sea.

    Glad you guys are okay........although it sounds so strange to hear about getting "20 cm of snow" in late June.

    Closed roads etc etc plus a few trees down to make life interesting in my area (Upper Blue Mountains, about 120km west of Sydney).

    We did get snow overnight at home though ! Perhaps more later in the week.
