You should stay informed by monitoring warnings issued by NSW SES on their website and page, listening to your local ABC radio station, and checking the latest weather information from the Bureau of Meteorology online.

Heavy shower and thunderstorm activity is expected within the vicinity of the trough from Friday afternoon through to Sunday, with locally heavy rainfall likely.

There is some degree of uncertainty over the exact location and timing of the heaviest falls. Catchment specific flood warnings will be issued if and when required.
