Severe Weather Warning
Parts of the North Island are expected to be hit by heavy rain and severe gales tomorrow, as Cyclone Fili reaches New Zealand. MetService has issued a severe weather warning, and we’re bracing ourselves for the possibility of outages across the network.
Be sure to keep mobile phones charged and ensure you have a car charger for your devices so you can keep in touch and keep informed. It also may pay to have a torch handy (they are safer than candles which can be a fire hazard) and have a gas bottle topped up for cooking.
Civil Defence Northland has good guidelines for being prepared, staying safe, and putting together an emergency survival and getaway kit here: nrc.govt.nz/civildefence.
