TASMANIANS are urged to exercise caution on the state’s roads today as wet and windy conditions are expected to continue.

A severe weather warning for heavy winds and rain is current across the state and flooding is likely, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.

“Another cold front is approaching Tasmania today with heavy rain expected in the North and West of the state,” a spokesman for BOM said.

“We should see conditions becoming colder and windier again, and there’s risk of rainwater entering the state’s rivers.”

Following damaging tree falls across the state on Tuesday, the BOM has urged Tasmanian’s to take care on the roads.

“There’s a road weather alert in place in the North, West, and South today and with that, Tasmanians should expect water over our roads and reduced visibility while driving.”

Despite little snowfall at Cradle Mountain over the past 24 hours, hotel manager Todd Roberts said visitors could expect snow ahead of this weekend.

“Snow is forecast to fall from Thursday so we’re hopeful to see a good amount of cover over the weekend,” Mr Roberts said.

“It’s a very busy period for us with school holidays on, so we have our fingers crossed that our guests can experience snowfall.”
