- Title: Extreme weather timeline from Jan-March 2021
- Date: 12th December 2021
- Summary: Five days of incessant rain triggered the worst floods in more than half a century in New South Wales, Australia's most populous state, cutting off entire towns and washing away homes, farms, and livestock. Tens of thousands of people were evacuated during the deluge, which at its peak subjected around 40% of the country's population of 25 million across an area the size of Alaska to weather warnings.
