Issued by MetService at 01:57 pm Saturday 22 December 2018
Valid until 09:00 pm Saturday 22 December 2018
This watch affects people in the following weather forecast districts:
Christchurch
Canterbury Plains
Canterbury High Country
Scattered thunderstorms are expected to spread north through Canterbury this afternoon and evening. There is a risk that some of these thunderstorms could become SEVERE for a time this afternoon and evening, producing localised downpours of 20 to 30mm per hour, large hail of 15 to 25mm diameter and possibly a small tornado.
Rainfall of this intensity can cause surface flooding, slips and hazardous driving conditions, while large hail can cause damage to crops, orchards, vines and glasshouses and also make driving hazardous. If any tornadoes occur, they will only affect very localised areas.
i see doctors can" opt out as" they call it in giving the cheaper fees for seniors.I thought the government set the rules

Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.
Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!
Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.

The heated dispute was sparked by the decision on Wednesday of an Environment Canterbury (ECan)-appointed commissioner to approve Cloud Ocean Water's plans to extract water from a 186-metre deep bore at its Belfast bottling operation.
That decision, which locked members of the public and their opinions out of the consent process, enraged Christchurch mayor Lianne Dalziel and city councillor Vicki Buck.
But ECan's chairman says the criticism is "ill-informed" and "off-the-wall".

She was on the leash and I was running with her past the top of Broadhaven Reserve on the forest trail (near the parking lot at the top of Bower Ave - entrance to Bottle Lake Forest). The three dogs ran across from the kids play area and immediately attacked my dog. Two of the dogs looked like Staffordshire Bull Terriers (one was black and tan and the other I think was lighter colour) the other dog was white and tan and looked like a small terrier type dog. I tried to get the dogs off my dog but they kept attacking. It is all a bit of a blur but I think that there we four people with the dogs (I think that they were in their 40's). One guy had hold of one of his dogs but it wouldn't let go of my dog, he ended up hitting it and it eventually let go. I think that two of the people were Maori. I've just got back from the vet and Kailey has three big wounds, one on her back, one on her back leg and one under her front leg, she has had loads of stitches. I'm going to file a report with dog control and would like to be able to identify the owners - if anyone could help please contact me. I've also got a small puncture wound on my arm - not sure how I got that, bite or scratch? Jayne

Council will trial phasing the traffic lights on Bealey Ave so traffic gets a clear run down the length of the street, to reduce noise from things like stopping and accelerating, revving and burn-outs.
