Tasmania 7 Day Rainfall Forecast
Thunderstorms are less frequent in Tasmania than on the mainland, but warm, humid north westerlies ahead of a front can still set off lightning over the highlands and east coast.
This forecast shows rain expected across Tasmania over the next seven days, in millimetres. Tap any point for a reading, or open the national Australia map.
Pale blues show light falls, greens and yellows a useful soaking, and orange through purple the heaviest totals. Treat totals as a broad regional guide and check warnings close to the event.

Using the Tasmania rainfall forecast safely
This map is forecast guidance, not a warning. Totals change with every model run, and a single storm can drop far more rain on one catchment than the map suggests. Official rainfall, flood and severe weather warnings from the Bureau of Meteorology always take priority for Tasmania. Never drive through floodwater.
For rain already falling, use the rainfall radar and observations. For storm risk, see the Tasmania thunderstorm forecast map.
Tasmania in focus
The national rainfall forecast framed on Tasmania, using exactly the same millimetre colour scale as every other view so you can compare areas fairly.
Clear issued and valid times
Every map states when the forecast was produced and the period it covers — the next seven days — in Australian eastern time.
Guidance, not a warning
Plan travel, outdoor work and farm operations around it, but Bureau of Meteorology rainfall and flood warnings always come first.
