"The immediate dangers posed by significant rainfall and abnormally high tides are now behind us. We haven't had any rainfall since Saturday and we know the river levels and storage basins are gradually and continuously dropping," says Mayor Dalziel.
"The low-pressure system that was affecting tidal levels has now passed, and while they remain high, they are now within normal tidal ranges.
"Although we are transitioning into a recovery period, we are still monitoring river levels, tides and weather forecasts very closely, to ensure we are ready to react if we need to.
"The forecast of further rain from this Thursday means the situation is still changeable, but we are working hard to minimise any impacts by clearing flood debris from rivers, sumps and storm-water grates, and keeping pumps deployed in Southshore and Flockton."

To help, New Zealand Red Cross provided $6.9 million to 179 Canterbury schools, designed to improve the well-being of children by funding a range of school programmes, events and initiatives.
Find out the difference this funding made to both the schools and students in the sixth of our 10 Good Stories videos. These videos show all the ways Red Cross helped one in five Cantabrians recover from the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes, thanks to the generous donations of people from New Zealand and beyond.

Western Valley Road will be closed for the evening due to a bridge washout. There are alternative routes from Port Levy to Pigeon Bay so the washout has not isolated houses.

I wash at home and dry there. I did three loads of washing, sheets, towels etc. only cost a few dollars to dry. Very quick. Buy the tokens from the dairy next door or use eftpos.

With this in mind, and for safety reasons now that it is dark, we recommend that people who have not yet evacuated remain in their homes, and those that have evacuated do not try to return overnight.
