An outbreak of dangerous thunderstorms and heavy rainfall will impact large parts of the state over the next two to three days.
A low pressure system and a series of associated troughs will bring moderate to heavy rainfall to parts of the New England region in the next 24 hours and this complex pattern will cause further widespread storm activity and rain in the coming days.
During the next 72 hours widespread falls of 30 to 60 millimetres are forecast across large areas of the state, while isolated falls of 60 to 100 millimetres could fall with thunderstorms.
In addition to the heavy rainfall, damaging winds and large hailstones are also possible within severe storm cells.
If you require emergency help during this period of severe weather, call the NSW SES on 132 500 and if life-threatening, call 000.
