Victoria has been hit by flash flooding after wild storms moved across the state, the Herald Sun reports. The flooding was reported on Sunday, 25 October 2026, as the storms affected parts of Victoria.
The Herald Sun's headline account points to flash flooding as the main impact of the severe weather. The report does not specify which areas of the state were worst affected or the extent of any damage.
The Herald Sun's coverage is currently limited to the headline and a brief summary, with no full article text available. Further details on rainfall totals, road closures, emergency warnings or injuries have not been confirmed in the material published so far.
Flash flooding occurs when heavy rain falls faster than drains, creeks and soil can absorb it, causing water to rise quickly on roads and in low-lying areas. Because conditions can change rapidly during such events, official emergency advice is the most reliable guide for residents in affected locations.
What to watch next: whether Victoria's emergency services issue formal warnings or updates, and whether the Herald Sun and other outlets publish fuller accounts of the storm's impact, including affected towns and any damage assessments.
