The forecast snow has sparked MetService to issue a severe weather watch for Fiordland, and inland parts of Southland, Queenstown Clutha and Otago.

Please be careful when driving as there have been reports of black ice and slips which have caused hazardous conditions.

- Snowfalls had closed the Lewis Pass (SH7), Crown Range road and the Milford Road (SH94) from Hollyford Rd junction to Milford. The alternative route to the Crown Range via Kawarau Gorge was open but there could be black ice.

- Snow was also falling in Arthur's Pass (SH73). Falls were also expected around the summits for Haast Pass (SH6), Lindis Pass (SH8).

- The Queenstown Lakes District Council says there is black ice "across the network", especially Malagans Road, Glenorchy Road, Fernhill Road, around Arthur's Point and Kelvin Heights.

Remember to:
- Keep an eye out for your neighbours, especially the elderly, to ensure everyone is warm and looked after. Post to your Neighbourly community if you can lend a hand.
- If you notice any slips or hazards that you need to warn the community about - then don't hesitate to post an Urgent Alert. Your post will be sent out as either a text or email to others living around you.

Poll: Would you give your teenager a double bed?

Jo Haywood Reporter from Homed

After debate around whether Matariki should become a public holiday, ACT leader David Seymour said he was "open" to public holidays being scrapped in New Zealand - well, all but Anzac and Waitangi.

He says people should be able to make their own holiday arrangements, rather than the Government telling us when to take the day off.

We want to know your thoughts. Should people be able to make their own holiday arrangements? Or should we leave our holidays as is?
