The warning was issued at 9.40pm on Sunday. It signals that more than 30mm of rain had fallen or was expected within an hour across the city.
Unsettled weather is forecast to continue under the influence of a southwest monsoon and trough of low pressure. Showers are expected to be particularly heavy until Tuesday.
