Already, 17 people are missing and one is confirmed dead in Victoria, while seven people are confirmed dead in NSW. Another man is missing and presumed dead in NSW.
Speaking in Bairnsdale on Thursday afternoon, Premier Daniel Andrews said he held grave fears for those missing.
"These are very challenging circumstances and unique in many ways. To have this many people cut off from services is not something we would normally experience," he said.
