Further north around the Northern Rivers, we’ve seen water levels drop to minor at Lismore and slowly for Ballina but a lot of water through the river systems there. Moderate to major flooding will continue today and ease tomorrow. We could see showers and isolated thunderstorms up there, but they will be hit and miss thankfully. Most areas should be dry but be aware this afternoon for the possibility of severe thunderstorms up in the Northern Rivers this afternoon and this evening.
As we move through today, shower salso continue from the Illawarra to the Hunter. They will be brief and isolated but brief bursts of rainfall that’s heavy. The next system tomorrow will move in. We will see showers and thunderstorms through the Riverina, into the Table Lands, Canberra and the south coast Saturday.
There will be showers and thunderstorms. We have a few minor flood warnings on the Bega and River. The shower and thunderstorm activity is likely to be widespread Sunday and include the Illawarra, the Central Coast, into the Hunter. There could be widespread areas of rain associated with this, particularly some guidance is hinting to another low-pressure system along the New South Wales coast Sunday to Monday.
Here in New South Wales, the low-pressure systems are dynamic, so where the earliest of-other areas of heavy rainfall will fall, we won’t know yet, but we are looking at widespread showers and thunderstorms across eastern from the Mid North Coast all the way down to the Victorian border and inland on Sunday and Monday.
