Canberra residents are mopping up after a day of heavy rainfall, with some areas hit with more than 50mm of rain in an hour.
The ACT State Emergency Service had received more than 200 calls for help on Sunday evening as heavy rainfall closed roads and led to some flash flooding.
Woolshed Creek, in Canberra's northeast, received about 45mm of rain in the hour to 10am Sunday, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
Many residents posted images on social media showing flooded basements and swollen creeks as authorities urged people not to drive through flooded roads.
The majority of the rain fell in the morning, however it persisted throughout the afternoon as a trough gradually contracted to the northeast.
Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Steph Spackman said there would only be light showers and drizzle overnight.
"It will start to clear out about mid morning Monday and we'll still have those southeasterlies, but the precipitation should be gone by then," she told AAP.
The Australian National University announced its Acton campus would be closed on Monday due to the flooding.
The university said while child care centres would open as usual, students and staff shouldn't come to the campus as "essential safety checks on infrastructure including bridges, creek banks and electrical switchboards" were being conducted.
