Heavy rain is forecast across Tasmania on Sunday evening and into Monday morning as another cold front crosses the state.

This is forecast to be mostly on the west coast, as well as areas in the north-west, north and north-east that already have elevated river levels.

The extent of any flooding will be dependent on how much rain the overnight cold front brings.

It could then last several days for affected areas.

Southern parts of the state are not expected to experience as severe wind and rain on Sunday night, but the River Derwent at Meadowbank was at emergency flood warning level on Sunday night, with residents urged to evacuate.

The cold front on Sunday night will bring destructive winds to the north, north-west and west coast.

It follows Saturday night where some weather stations experienced their strongest gusts in decades, meaning some infrastructure and vegetation is already at risk of failure, and more widespread damage is expected.

Where is the flooding?

River Derwent

The most immediate risk of significant flooding is the River Derwent, downstream of the Meadowbank Dam.

This includes the localities and towns of Meadowbank, Glenora, Bushy Park, Gretna, Macquarie Plains and surrounds, with the Styx River also contributing to the flooding.

These areas have a flood emergency warning.

The Bureau of Meteorology forecasts major flooding will occur overnight on Sunday into Monday, persisting for several days, as well as in flooded tributaries.

New Norfolk could also be impacted, including inundation of low-lying areas, over the coming days.

Mersey River

The bureau is also closely monitoring the Mersey River from Kimberley to Latrobe.

Latrobe had a flood levee system built in recent years, including a temporary water storage area for local runoff to divert water away from the town centre.

The river has a watch and act warning.

Strahan and Macquarie Harbour

Warnings have been issued for abnormally high tides for the township of Strahan over the coming few days.

Macquarie Harbour and its streams and rivers are likely to experience flooding, threatening properties, livestock and crops, particularly in low-lying areas.

Meander River

This includes the communities of Reedy Marsh, Westbury, Exton, Hagley, Selbourne, Carrick and Westwood.

Over the next 48 hours, low-lying properties could become isolated by floodwater from streams and the river.

Other areas of concern

The North Esk River from Corra Linn to Mowbray in Launceston could experience flooding over the coming days.

Other rivers in the north that have advice warnings for flooding are the Liffey River from Liffey to Carrick, the Macquarie River from Westmore to Chatswood, and the South Esk River, including Royal George, Avoca and Fingal.

In the south, there is a flood advice warning for the Huon River from Tahune Bridge to Judbury, and the Ouse River at Ouse.

When will power be restored?

On Sunday evening, TasNetworks was reporting about 17,000 customers — homes and businesses — were still without power, due to about 150 separate outages.

That's down from a peak of about 34,000 customers without power, and nearly 300 outages.

All available crews, totalling 26, are in the field attempting to restore power, prioritising outages that are affecting the most customers, as well as those impacting vulnerable people.

Crews will work through Sunday night unless the weather makes it unsafe to do so.

The majority of outages have been caused by trees on powerlines.

TasNetworks chief executive officer Sean McGoldrick said it might take a while to restore power to everyone.

"It's going to take us a number of days to get everybody back, especially because it's hard to predict what's going to happen tonight [Sunday night]," he said.
