Australia's east coast has been battered by storms which will bring a weekend of downpours, massive swells and severe flooding. 

Early on Friday, the Village Central Wyong shopping centre on the NSW Central Coast, over 100mm of severe rain caused the roof to collapse and fall onto the mall floor as shoppers walked by. 

The wet weather will continue over the weekend and Sydney is expected to be hit with up to 400mm by Sunday evening, making it one of the wettest weekends in years.
