A trough and cold front are forecast to bring widespread moderate rainfall to New South Wales from later Thursday through to Friday, with severe thunderstorms possible.
The highest falls are likely during Thursday through the inland, particularly in the North-West Slopes and Plains.
This rainfall may cause flooding along rivers in parts of the Central West catchments from late Thursday, many of which are experiencing ongoing flooding due to previous rainfall in recent
weeks.
Minor to moderate flooding is possible along parts of the Gwydir, Peel and Namoi Rivers.
Catchments are currently wet or saturated from rainfall in recent weeks, the SES advised in a flood watch bulletin.
The Bureau of Meteorology is continuing to monitor the situation and will issue catchment specific warnings should river levels be expected to reach or exceed minor flood level.
