Rainfall will persist throughout north eastern NSW, with a forecast of strong winds and surf sparking warnings for anyone heading to the coastline.
The Bureau of Meteorology has issued a surf warning for the coastline from Sydney up to Byron, saying conditions will be hazardous for activities such as rock fishing, boating and swimming.
Showers will continue on Sunday and into the week across NSW's east, with heavy rainfall in the state's mid north coast prompting a flood warning.
The northern rivers at Orara, Bellinger and Kalang could flood as heavy rainfall is expected to hit the region, says BOM forecaster Gabrielle Woodhouse.
"People should remain alert, but not alarmed," the forecaster said.
