Australian emergency services are searching for a woman believed to have been "swept away" by torrential rain and heavy snowfall in the Australian state of New South Wales, state police said today, quoted by DPA and BTA.

It's winter in the southern hemisphere right now.

Police said they received reports that a "Mini Countryman" had "attempted to drive through a flood" in the Hunter Valley wine region, north of Sydney.

After the water swept away the car, a woman aged between 20 and 30 escaped from it, but was swept away by the current. She was declared wanted.

A 27-year-old woman was behind the wheel, who managed to save herself, explains the DPA.

The water element also dragged a 40-year-old man, but he managed to grab a tree.
