Severe thunderstorm watch issued by MetService

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Thunderstorms have developed in Southland, Clutha and Central Otago this afternoon. Some of these thunderstorms are expected to bring heavy rain with intensities of 10 to 25mm per hour and hail 10 to 20mm in diameter. Additionally there is a moderate risk that some slow moving thunderstorms could become SEVERE producing downpours with intensities of 25 to 40mm per hour. Rainfall of this intensity can cause surface and/or flash flooding, especially about low-lying areas such as streams, rivers or narrow valleys, and may also lead to slips. Driving conditions will also be hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility in heavy rain.

Should severe weather approach or if you feel threatened, take shelter immediately.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
