Storms delivered more than forecast with some parts of the New England North West region receiving between 1mm and 10mm.
Tamworth residents woke to the pitter-patter of rain on Monday with 14.6mm recorded at the airport by 3:30pm, and 7.6mm in Gunnedah.
But, it's not expected to hang around, Bureau of Meteorology meteorologist Rosemary Barr said.
"With showery and erratic precipitation it can be fairly hit and miss, some people will get really lucky and others less so," she said.
"We see a high pressure system across the state as of Tuesday but we will have the influence of another cold front on Thursday.

"It looks like any rainfall will be confined to the central and southern parts of the state until Saturday and if we see anything then it will be light."
