Storm-battered towns in NSW have been warned to watch out for more flooding, which has already claimed four lives.
The Bureau of Meteorologist says the worst of wild weather is over, but have warned that flood peaks will still come today despite less rainfall across the state's east coast.
Cyclonic conditions that have lashed Sydney and surrounding regions for days have left a trail of destruction, including more than 200,000 homes without power as of Wednesday evening.
The latest victim of the flooding was confirmed on Wednesday night as police divers retrieved the body of an elderly woman whose car was washed away that morning.
Horrified witnesses could do nothing as the woman's car was swept into Wallis Creek along Cessnock Road in the Hunter region.
Her death takes the number of people killed in the storms to four.
Bureau of Meteorologist forecaster Jake Phillips says aside from some intense showers, the weather is easing.
"Showers will be nothing like what we've seen in the past few days," he told AAP on Wednesday night.
Storm victims have been warned to be weary of floods as they clean up their homes.
