Floods and winds have left Sydney’s infrastructure in turmoil with authorities unsure when the chaos will cease.
Sydney’s storm, which battered the city overnight, has left passengers stranded as roads, terminals and train lines remain blocked and flooded.
Sydney’s airport was closed down overnight as winds shut down any chance of planes landing and terminals were flooded.
This morning the airport advised via Twitter that the airport was now open for business, but diversions would continue throughout the day.
Travellers coming into Sydney and Newcastle were stranded at Brisbane Airport overnight, with flights appearing to resume normal service this morning.
The Courier-Mail received reports of hundreds of passengers forced to sleep at the airport as a result of flights being delayed by major storms in the Sydney region last night.
