A third person has died in devastating floods that have swamped NSW, as the first victim has been remembered as a “selfless hero”.

The SES has warned residents it is too late to leave as torrential rain cuts off evacuation routes in Port Macquarie as Sydney braces for a blast of torrential rainfall that has wreaked havoc across parts of the NSW Mid North Coast.

Moto farmer David Knowles has been identified as the first of three people to have died in the devastating floods.Earlier today, emergency service crews also found the body of a man in floodwaters near Rosewood, 4km west of Wauchope. 

Authorities started searching for the man, who is believed to be in his 30s, on Wednesday night following reports he had become stuck in floodwaters while driving.
