The time to leave areas of Central Victoria passed on Sunday with emergency crews warning anyone remaining in Shepparton, Orrvale, Mooroopna and Elmore to Rochester to find high ground as flood waters rise.
Central Victoria continued to bear the brunt of the floods as waters receded in Tasmania and some regions of New South Wales.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese travelled to Bendigo to meet with Victorian Premier Daniel Andrews to be briefed on the situation across the state.
