New modelling shows coastal North Canterbury towns under threat from tsunami
Evacuation zones in North Canterbury will be reviewed after modelling showed coastal towns Kaiapoi and Pegasus could flood in a tsunami.
Environment Canterbury commissioned GNS Science to model the impacts of various tsunami scenarios for North Pegasus Bay, after work completed for Christchurch last year resulted in larger evacuation zones for the city.
The report shows that the largest tsunami threats could affect areas of the district outside current evacuation zones, including parts of the Kaiapoi and Pegasus townships. Read the full story here.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
