Australia may only be days into summer but in many states the weather hasn't quite caught up yet, with parts of the country hit by severe rain and even snow.

While Sydney sweltered through temperatures nearing 30C on Sunday, flood warnings remained for parts of Victoria and snow was even recorded in central Tasmania.

Resorts east of Launceston posted photos of white blanketing the ground, with residents choosing to stay indoors out of the cold.

The snow was mostly seen through the North East Highlands and Central Plateau, a Bureau of Meteorology spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia on Sunday.

The Great Lakes Hotel took to Facebook to show their snowfall, writing 'Nice surprise - just stuck my nose out to see why the power flickered. SNOW back to bed for me.'

Conditions are expected to remain cool through the rest of the week, with a series of lows moving through the North East again on Wednesday, bringing a chance of rain.

More than 30mm was recorded overnight, with Hobart receiving 36mm and Mt Wellington copping 52mm, prompting police to warn motorists to drive to the conditions.

The rays were set to be short-lived however, with windy conditions and rain predicted again for Monday and Tuesday.

Weatherzone meteorologist Brett Dutschke warned the rain would settle back in for the start of the working week with 'tomorrow noticeably cooler and wet'.

'Most of the rain is going to fall in the eastern suburbs near the beaches,' he said.

Temperatures were expected to peak in the low 20s in Sydney as the week got underway, before hitting a warm 29C on Thursday.

It comes as flood warnings remain in place across towns in north-eastern Victoria.

Extreme weather broke century-long records with two days of torrential rain and flooding hitting the state.

The heavy rains and wild winds forced some residents from their homes on Friday and Saturday, with evacuations ordered.

In Eildon, a 130-year record was smashed when 129mm was dumped on the town.

While in Echuca, near the border of NSW, more than 123mm of rain fell overnight breaking a 159-year-old daily rain record.

Mt Bula also set a new record for the first time in 69 years, copping 139mm over the 24 hour period.

And the heaviest hit area was Strathbogie, tearing down a 100 year record with a massive 165mm of rain.

The potential for floods remains after two days of torrential rains threatened to burst river banks in Euroa and Myrtleford.

Residents were told to prepare for the worst by sandbagging their homes, while others chose to flee the swelling rivers and creeks.

'Some of these rainfall totals we've seen are well and truly an entire summer's rain almost in just a 24-hour period,' he told reporters in Melbourne.

The weather is set to ease off for Victoria though now, a Weatherzone spokesman told Daily Mail Australia on Sunday.

'Showers are still expected to fall across Melbourne but they will be similar to a cold front,' the spokesman said.

'The storm is moving south to Tasmania now but there will be showers across the east of Melbourne.'
