New community research from NRMA Insurance reveals nearly two-thirds of NSW residents are worried severe weather such as storms are becoming more frequent and intense.

But this community anxiety isn't being translated into action. Only 57 per cent feel their home and family are prepared for severe weather this summer, and just 35 per cent have recently taken steps to prepare.

NRMA Insurance Executive General Manager Claims, Luke Gallagher said with Australia currently experiencing a La Nina weather system more storms and intense rain were possible this year.

"The fact that over a million households in NSW may not be prepared for severe weather and dangerous storms this summer is a major concern."

According to forecasters the central west can expect above average rainfall in November.

The wettest November on record was 20 years ago when 181.8mm fell across the city, while in 2002 no rain was recorded.

The most recent falls have taken Dubbo's yearly total to 668.6mm, well over the total of 203.6mm that had been received up until this day last year.

Rain events originating in the tropics, moving south are possible about November 16 to November 20, November 28 to December 2, and 7 December 7 to December 11.
