IT'S raining in Victoria. Not record-breaking rain or the kind to cause major flooding, but enough to create havoc on the roads.
Severe weather warnings are in place for parts of Victoria because of the downfalls.
Melbourne has copped its heaviest rainfall since November with 20mm falling over the past two days.
The main impact has been on the roads, with cars colliding in the slippery conditions.
There haven't been any serious injuries, Ambulance Victoria said in a tweet on Thursday, but paramedics have been called to 24 collisions across the state in the space of eight hours.
VicRoads says there's been 33 lane closures in Melbourne over three days because of the rain.
The Bureau of Meteorology has warned of heavy rain which may lead to flash flooding for the Mallee, Northern Country and North East districts on Thursday evening.
Severe weather warnings for the central district around Melbourne, the Wimmera and North Central districts have been cancelled.
Warrenbayne, near Benalla in northeast Victoria, copped the highest amount of rain with 13mm on Thursday, the bureau said.
Melbourne should get another 5-15mm of rain on Friday before it eases to a few showers over the weekend.
The State Emergency Service has had more than 70 calls for help on Thursday, mainly for building damage and fallen trees.
