A severe weather warning is in place for three states this morning.

Parts of Western Australia, Northern Territory and South Australia have been told to brace for heavy rain, flash flooding and the chance of hail.

"Unseasonal rainfall" will be seen across Perth and eastern WA as a stagnant trough slams into an "unusually moist air mass".

As it does it will increase the risk of flash flooding.

The Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) has issued a severe weather warning for Greater Perth, Moora, Giles, Gingin, Lancelin, Wongan Hills and Yanchep.

"Severe thunderstorms are likely to produce damaging winds, large hailstones and heavy rainfall that may lead to flash flooding in the warning area over the next several hours," it said.

The Lasseter district in the Northern Territory is at risk of damaging winds and large hail stones.

Locations which may be affected include Yulara, Kaltukatjara, Curtin Springs and Uluru.

Another weather warning issued for Borroloola in the Northern Territory has since been cancelled.

Damaging winds and large hail has also been forecast for the North West Pastoral district in South Australia, with Amata and parts of the Great Victoria Desert put on alert.

Flash flooding is hitting the NSW Mid North Coast.

A weather warning in place for Rockhampton, Yeppoon, Dunbar and Byfield in Queensland has since been cancelled.

New South Wales residents can expect a mostly cloudy day, with the potential for a few scattered showers along the coast and adjacent ranges and over the northern inland border.
