The Ministry of Civil Defence & Emergency Management (MCDEM) is leading the implementation of a new nationwide emergency alert channel. A nationwide test of Emergency Mobile Alert is happening on 26 November 2017 between 6 and 7pm.
The Emergency Mobile Alert should appear automatically on your phone’s screen with a unique and penetrating warning sound. As Emergency Mobile Alert is about keeping you safe, you won’t be able to opt-out of receiving Emergency Mobile Alert.
It is expected around one third of phones will initially be able to receive the alerts. This number is expected to rise substantially over time as people replace their phones with newer models.

One recent job had water dripping down the roof window frame on a porch. The client had made a good job of siliconing around the exterior joins, yet still it leaked - lots.
Up on the ladder I noticed a dent on the tin roof where a roofer had missed the nail and bashed the ridge. There was a little pool underneath the nailhead and a tiny tear in the iron. So I sealed the damaged area and crossed my fingers.
I got a a nice surprise the other day in the Rangiora Pak n Save car park when the client told me that it had done the trick even after a torrential downpour.
So I guess the moral of this is where we see the water damage may a long way from where the leak is, so think like a drip and search uphill from where you see the water coming in. You may be surprised.
