Following a dry 2019, the region saw a record 40 days with no rain in January and February, paving the way for water restrictions that would continue into December.
Despite the restrictions and Aucklanders being the most efficient water users in New Zealand, the dam levels are still low and Watercare is asking everyone to try and save 20 litres per day.
We’ve put together a list of easy ways you can save water around your home, as well as a few ideas for if you’re willing to go the extra mile.

The 56-year-old London-based former Hole frontwoman, worth an estimated $130 million, posted a photo of a Covid test unlike any most of her followers would've ever had, explaining that she was sharing it "because I've never been great at this 1 percenter s***."
Love explained the at-home Covid test kits tested for the virus and for antibodies. She continued by pointing out that testing is more important than ever, given London's new "mutant strain" of coronavirus that's reported to be 70 per cent more infectious.

The lanes will be closed for resurfacing and other maintenance from Boxing Day for up to ten days. This closure will affect the Shelley Beach off-ramp with access controlled by a stop/go managment system.
Motorists are encouraged to use the Western Ring route if there are delays on the bridge. Three lanes will be open to traffic in both directions says Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency Auckland System Manager, Andrea Williamson.
“The resurfacing process on the bridge requires 3-5 days to “cure” before allowing traffic on it, so while it may look as if nothing is happening the team will be using the lanes closure for other maintenance tasks, including water blasting and painting just below the road deck.”
Motorists are advised to check Waka Kotahi's social media sites for any updates on the lane closures during the 10 day period.

Ark in the Park is an open sanctuary and conservation project in the Waitākere Ranges near Auckland.
Zoo staff joined volunteers to take an annual census in the west Auckland nature reserve, recording all banded and un-banded birds.
About 1600 pairs of kokako remain in the north island.
The census is held to note their presence in the forest and determine if their populations are growing.
The bands are used to identify each individual bird which bears its own unique colour combination.
Data gleaned from the survey is used to scout out nests.
The chicks are moved from the nest for weighing and banding before being returned swiftly to their mother.
