MetService has issued a red heavy rain warning for Wellington City, Lower Hutt, and Wairarapa, with heavy rain forecast until 9pm on Tuesday 21 April.
As the rain continues falling on us, avoid travelling in severe weather. Always check our page before you travel to see if state highways are affected. Follow us if you arenβt already.
If you absolutely must travel:
β’ slow down
β’ increase your following distance
β’ turn your headlights on dipped
β’ donβt drive through any floodwater, even if it looks shallow.
Floodwater can be very dangerous β it's hard to see how deep flooding is and how fast the water is moving, and you won't be able to see if the road is damaged beneath the surface of the water. It's easy to lose control of your vehicle even in shallow water.
Wellington Region Emergency Management Office has declared a state of emergency for the Wellington region to support the response to ongoing severe weather, flooding and infrastructure impacts.
We'll publish new posts on our pages as state highways are affected β this post won't be updated. Check our page for the latest information.
Stay safe and follow Wellington Region Emergency Management Office, MetService New Zealand, and us for updates.
PARENTS of Rata Street Oscar Programme children, a red weather warning has been issued. A hutt councilor has said our area is not safe. Please collect your children early if you can.
Thanks Julie
