This is Sydney this morning. The temperature map at the title to this entry is in celsius. If one looks at Sydney it is discernable that there is significan cloudiness as the land from the satellite view is dark. Satelllites don't necessarily pick up 'cloud shadows.' So, this IS a very high tropospheric system resulting from the Climate Crisis and anthropogenic carbon dioxide.
SYDNEY'S wet weather woes will continue today but areas to the north will again face the brunt extreme conditions battering NSW.
The State Emergency Service evacuated about 400 people from Smithtown, Jerseyville and Kinchela, on the Macleay River south of Nambucca Heads, and in parts of Gladstone, which were at risk of being cut off by floods by midnight.
Another 400 people were moved from Kempsey's town centre after the Macleay River was predicted to reach 6.4 metres at the bridge by 3am.
The SES had received 815 requests for help between Monday and last night, with most of the damage caused by leaking roofs, fallen trees or the threat of flood....
...A Weatherzone meteorologist, Brett Dutschke, said Woolgoolga had received its biggest fall in 26 years, recording 400 millimetres of rain in three days. ''The Yamba total of 250 millimetres is a 12-year high,'' he said....

Four hundred millimeters is nearly 16 inches of rainfall in three days. To put that into perspective, about a year ago Oklahoma received between 12 to 16 inches of rain depending on where you were in elevation. Hurricane Flyod delivered anywhere from 12 to 20 inches of rain killing twenty people. Anthropogenic carbon dioxide at high levels in the troposphere is a dangerous and toxic gas to human life.
