Supermarket ceiling collapses in Sydney amid flash flooding

Dramatic video captured the moment the ceiling collapsed at a supermarket in Hurstville, New South Wales, on March 7, as severe thunderstorms brought flash flooding to the Sydney area.

Video shared by Rabih Elberjawi shows water pouring through the ceiling at an Aldi supermarket before the ceiling panels collapse and water floods the store’s aisles.

The Bureau of Meteorology warned of “life-threatening flash flooding” and potential landslides impacting the city, with heavy rain prompting multiple evacuation warnings.
