Auckland Emergency Management are working closely with MetService New Zealand and tracking Cyclone Gabrielle, which is due to start impacting the upper North Island from Sunday.

We encourage our Tāmaki Makaurau whānau to use this time to get prepared.
With potential for heavy rain and strong winds, surface flooding and slips are possible and strong wind gusts could damage trees, powerlines and unsecured structures.

How to get prepared:
1. Stay up to date with the latest weather warnings from MetService: www.metservice.com...
2. Make a household plan that includes your pets, in case you need to evacuate.
3. Have a grab bag with essential items ready to go.
4. Be prepared for possible power outages and check emergency supplies. In a storm you could be stuck at home for up to three days.
5. Clear debris and leaves from drains and gutters to help prevent surface flooding.
6. Secure items like wheelie bins, trampolines, outdoor furniture, boats and trailers. Bring items inside or tie items down that could move in strong winds.
7. Check on your friends, whānau, neighbours and anyone who might need your help, especially those who have already been affected by recent flooding.

Follow Auckland Emergency Management on Facebook or Twitter or visit their website by clicking on 'Read More' to stay updated as this weather system progresses and receive further advice.
For preparedness advice in different languages visit: getready.govt.nz...

Kia kaha Tāmaki Makaurau.

We’re thinking of our neighbours and small businesses affected by the flooding across Auckland. While it’s heartbreaking to see our communities struggle through another significant, disruptive event, we’re also seeing our members band together to support each other.

Here’s a few ways Neighbourly can help right now…

IF YOU'RE A SMALL BUSINESS:
- we're giving small businesses affected by the flooding a free 3-month Premium Business Listing. Simply follow this link and follow the steps to set up your profile.

IF YOU'RE NEEDING SUPPORT:
- share a few words on Neighbourly to let your neighbours know how they can help you or someone you know
- get in touch with the Neighbourly team if we can help spread the word about anything you're doing in the community - or if you're involved with a community group that's needing some support

IF YOU CAN HELP YOUR COMMUNITY:
- share a few words on Neighbourly to let your community know how you can support them. Remember no offer is too small - even just offering to be the friendly voice of support on the other end of the phone can help a neighbour feeling overwhelmed or isolated
- consider sharing resources or information you have found helpful at this time on Neighbourly
- check on your neighbours but do not put yourself in danger doing so. If you feel there is any risk consider sending them a message through your Neighbourly inbox
