Apparently Shitney got smashed
Several roads in northern Sydney are closed and some public transport services impacted on Monday morning due to ongoing rain, which has seen more than 100 millimetres fall in some suburbs over the weekend.
At 6.30am, the Wakehurst Parkway was closed in both directions from Oxford Falls to North Narrabeen, due to flooding, with motorists advised to instead use Pittwater Road and Warringah Road.
Also on the northern beaches, Oxford Falls Road remained closed in both directions between the Wakehurst Parkway and Aroona Road due to flooding.
In the north-west, Galston Road was closed in both directions due to a rockfall west of the bridge but the incident was cleared before 7.30am.
Manly Fast Ferry and F1 services were cancelled on Monday morning due to the weather conditions, with replacement bus services running betwen Manly at the city. Ferry services between Parramatta and Rydalmere were also cancelled and replaced with buses due to the weir overflowing.
Central Coast Line train services were delayed by up to 15 minutes after the heavy rain activated track safety monitors at Wondabyne
Meanwhile, Ausgrid crews restored power to people in South Turramurra, Turramurra and West Pymble on the upper north shore on Monday morning, while crews are continuing to work at Avalon Beach, Bilgola and Bilgola Plateau on the northern beaches.
The disruption comes as some areas of the city's upper north shore and northern beaches recorded more than 100 millimetres in rain over the past three days, as a low pressure system brought a wet end to a previously dry October.
At Wahroonga, about 115 millimetres of rain fell has fallen since showers began on Friday evening. Most of the rain came on Sunday, with 76 millimetres of rain falling between 9am on Sunday and 6.30am on Monday.
Nearby in Hornsby there were similar totals: the suburb saw 75 millimetres since 9am Sunday for a total of 112 millimetres over the course of the downpour.
On the northern beaches, there was 73 millimetres of rain at Terrey Hills since 9am Sunday and 112 millimetres recorded across the weekend.
