๐Ÿ”ด Caution when on the roads

The Team from Manawatu, Taranaki, Whanganui-Ruapehu Police

Police are advising motorists to be aware of the weather warnings, and to take caution when on the roads.

Parts of the Central District area including the State Highway 3/Awakino Gorge area, are experiencing significant weather conditions, with reports of flooding, large slips, and trees across roads.

Please limit yourself to essential travel only and allow for extra time for your journey.

Reducing speed, using headlights and windscreen wipers, and watching your visibility will also ensure a safe trip.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens arenโ€™t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days โ€” the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, whoโ€™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!
