Tasmania's parched east coast has received a much-needed drenching, while summer snow fell in the central highlands overnight.
About 3000 properties across the state are without power on Sunday morning as a weather system that brought record rain to Victoria sweeps across the Apple Isle.
Several towns got more than 50mm, including St Helens, Bicheno and Swansea, in the 24 hours to 9am on Sunday.
A severe weather warning remains in place for the state's east coast from St Helens to south of Hobart.
Damaging wind gusts close to 100km/h and heavy rains are likely but conditions are expected to ease by Sunday evening.
The SES is trying to patch up a handful of homes in Greater Hobart.
"It's mostly water into houses and damaged roofs. We've been sandbagging a few properties," southern regional manager Mark Nelson said.
The Bureau of Meteorology received reports of up to 40cm of snow in the central highlands, about a week after a spring heatwave shattered records in many parts of Tasmania.
A minor flood warning has been issued for several waterways, including the River Derwent.
