Minor flood warnings have been issued for the Yarra River, Avoca River Broken River and the Werribee River upstream from Lake Melton.
There are also several major roads closed due to flooding including parts of the Princes Freeway and the Maroondah and Calder Highway.

State Emergency Service state controller Trevor White also urged residents to continue to keep a watch on local conditions, be prepared for further flooding activity and stay off roads if possible.
"We are asking Victorians to avoid travelling by road if possible and please never drive, ride or walk through floodwaters - this is the main cause of injury and death during flood emergencies," Mr White said.
