Flash flooding and wild weather rocked much of the nation on Thursday with one Melbourne Woolworths ensuring the supermarket giant was rebranded as “the wet food people”.
Shoppers filmed staff members frantically try to sweep the rising level of water outside the store, while further rain forced another metropolitan Woolies to shut their doors completely.
The freak storm wreaked havoc on the city with the SES responding to more than 1600 calls for help throughout the day.
