Heavy rain warning for Hawkes Bay
An Orange Warning for Heavy Rain has been issued for the Hawke’s Bay region with grave concerns for impacts given the already vulnerable terrain.
From now until Saturday morning, expect 150 to 200mm of rain about the ranges and also away from the ranges north of Hastings (this includes the Esk Valley area and the Wairoa District), and 75 to 100mm elsewhere. The heaviest falls are likely from 3pm Friday, with peak rates of 20 to 30mm/h possible.
Heavy rain may cause streams and rivers to rise rapidly. Surface flooding and slips are also possible and driving conditions may be hazardous.

To secure your electric garage doors
Pull the cord in the control box, either on the side of the door or the middle of your roof at the end of the control arm, then manually pull your door down. Push the bars on the inside of the doors across and into the holes in the side bracket, use a bolt, pin or padlock to secure them in place.
