Here's what you need to know:
- Surface and/or flash flooding is possible, especially about streams, rivers or narrow valleys - this may also lead to slips.
- Driving conditions will be hazardous with surface flooding and poor visibility in heavy rain. If any tornadoes occur, they will only affect very localised areas.
- Thunderstorm activity is expected to ease in Auckland in the early evening of Tuesday.
For information on preparing for and keeping safe during a storm, see the Civil Defence Get Ready website.

We run a 5 week Seasons programme for adults – one evening a week. We will be starting a new group this week and you are most welcome to come along and see if this programme works for you. There will be two facilitators and a small group of around five or six people discussing the various topics relating to these significant changes, while learning some strategies that may help you.
