Wet and windy conditions are expected for parts of eastern New South Wales from Monday, particularly coastal areas in the south, as a deep low pressure system develops off the NSW coast.
The NSW SES is encouraging people to prepare this weekend for possible thunderstorms and periods of heavy rain that are predicted to develop early Monday and into next week.
By Monday and Tuesday a low pressure system may develop on the southern coast, bringing the potential for heavy rainfall that may lead to flash and riverine flooding, damaging wind gusts and damaging surf.
You can monitor the Bureau of Meteorology website for any severe weather warnings for heavy rain or riverine flood warnings here:
