20:35Now PlayingRivers continue to rise in the Victoria flood emergency threatening thousands of homes, forcing more evacuations, cutting towns off and leaving communities without power.
The flood crisis comes as Australia's east coast braces for further thunderstorms this week, renewing flooding concerns for Victoria, as well as New South Wales and Tasmania.
In total there are just over 60 flood warnings in place across Victoria, stretching just north of Melbourne to the NSW border - and the water keeps on surging.
There's major concern for the regional centre of Shepparton today, with the Goulburn River expected to peak at a record 12.2 metres. Emergency Management Commissioner Andrew Crisp said the peak will hit "later this morning."
In Echuca, dozens of homes are already underwater with the Campaspe River peaking yesterday afternoon. And the neighbouring townships of Mooroopna and Kialla are cut off from each other.
In Maribyrnong, Melbourne, a trio of suspected looters are on the run after being surprised by a camera crew around flood-hit homes this morning.
