The SES is warning people living in low-lying areas on both the north and south side of Burril Lake should shelter now.
Another SES warning is current for those in low-lying parts of Sanctuary Point, such as Mountain Street, parts of Larmer Avenue and The Park Drive, should move to higher ground.
Further north on the Central Coast, the SES said homes identified for possible coastal erosion risk at North Entrance and Wamberal should also evacuate.
