A trough of low pressure over the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW) is likely to bring continued heavy rainfall, with many regions expected to receive up to 50 millimetres on Friday, leading to renewed flooding.

According to the Bureau of Meteorology (BOM), more flooding is expected, especially in the inland rivers and Hunter River regions, both of which have already been impacted by recent flooding.
