Africa-Press – Cape verde. <\/strong><\/span>Floods have struck New South Wales suburbs three times in recent years, prompting thousands to evacuate. Australia is bracing for floods as Sydney recorded its wettest weather in 164 years.<\/p>\n

According to official data, the city registered 2,213 mm of rainfall this year – which is the highest result since records began in 1858. The closest result was in 1950, which witnessed 2,194 mm.<\/p>\n

Authorities are warning residents of potential flash flooding, as even more rains are expected to hit the country in the coming months. The massive downpours are caused by La Nin\u0303a – a weather pattern that results in the change of the sea surface temperature across the eastern equatorial part of the central Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n
