16:41Now PlayingVideo shows a "wall of water" bringing devastation to New South Wales towns, with more than 220 people rescued from flooding in the past 24 hours.
It comes as Wyangala Dam spilled record amounts of water, after 100mm rain fell in just a few hours in parts of the NSW Central West. Helicopters and boats were used to carry out over 150 rescues in the inundated town of Eugowra, where people were forced to make for their roofs as floodwaters rose.
Floods have ripped up the road and destroyed a bridge into the town of Canowindra, while the Wyangala Dam is spilling 80,000 gigalitres a day into the Lachlan River.
There are currently 120 flood warnings in place across the state, including 24 emergencies.
An evacuation order has been issued for Forbes, with residents of low-lying areas told they need to leave their homes by 7am today.
