More bad weather is the way to Porirua and Hutt today
Wellington Weather is warning that bad weather is on the way and some area should expect flooding.
Strong winds are expected in the afternoon and evening gusting to 110km/ph.
The weather system is expected to bring down the temps into the low to mid-teens. After yesterday’s flash flooding in Plimmerton, this rain could cause more flooding in the same areas, but also in other areas that typically experience flooding such as Pahautanui, Waiwhetu and Basin Reserve.
If you are prone to flooding and have some flooding in the past, best to prepare as a precaution.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
