Ross Greenwood’s car swamped as Sydney drenched by heavy rainfall
Sydney’s recent heavy rainfall has left many mopping up this morning but 9NEWS Finance Editor Ross Greenwood has revealed he got off to a soggier start than most.
Greenwood showed off one of his dripping wet car mats on TODAY, confessing he had “stupidly” left his car windows down.
"I’m kind of a bit flooded at the moment," he said.
"So you leave the heater on for the rest of the day and you try and dry yourself out… and the second thing you do is don’t tell your wife that you’ve done this."
The NSW SES said they received over 360 calls for help overnight, with over 100 in the far north-east region.
Five people were rescued by emergency services in Ballina and Lismore, mostly due to vehicles becoming stranded in floodwaters.
