Around 28,000 people were without power in Sydney, the state capital and Australia's largest city, and 15,000 had no power in nearby Newcastle city and Hunter region, power company Ausgrid said on its website on Saturday morning. "It is still a dynamic situation, and I urge people in affected areas to stay up to date with the latest emergency warnings and follow the advice of emergency services," federal emergency management minister Jenny McAllister said in a statement announcing disaster support funding.

The alerts come after storms this week brought down trees and power lines and left 200,000 people without power in New South Wales, local media reported.
