"SYDNEY, Australia (Reuters) -- About 10,000 Sydney homes were without
                 power on Tuesday after fierce storms lashed southeast
Australia, whipping
                 up pounding seas and tearing roofs off houses, and
meteorologists warned
                 more severe storms were coming.

                 Torrential rain and strong winds battered Sydney on
Tuesday,

                 and four meter (12 feet) waves closed all 20 city
beaches and forced the
                 cancellation of some Sydney Harbour ferry services.

                 One man died after a tree fell on his car."
