More heavy rain is forecast across large swathes of NSW, threatening to prolong the flood crisis that has inundated towns, isolated communities and led to the death of a boy in the state's central west.
The Bureau of Meteorology warns that a trough moving across NSW could prolong the flooding, with widespread showers and thunderstorms predicted across much of the state, especially on Tuesday.
Communities are bracing for more destructive rain as the BOM issued minor to major flood warnings in a number of catchments that are already saturated.
