A SEVERE weather alert has been issued for much of NSW, with forecasters warning of large hailstones, heavy rain and flash flooding.
People living along the NSW coastline were given a severe thunderstorm warning by the Bureau of Meteorology this afternoon.
Large hailstones, heavy rainfall and flash flooding are expected to lash the state over several hours on Sunday afternoon, with Coffs Harbour, Port Macquarie, Taree, Newcastle, Gosford, Sydney, Armidale, Orange and Tamworth among the places likely to be hit.
The State Emergency Service (SES) has responded to 27 calls throughout NSW.
"Most of those were leaky roofs, a couple of trees and branches falling, but mostly minor damage," SES spokesman Phil Campbell said.
Up to 100 millimetres of rain has been forecast to hit Sydney and the Hunter region on Monday and this could cause some localised flash flooding, Mr Campbell said.
The SES is asking people to clean out their gutters and avoid floodwaters when driving.
