Severe weather watch for Hawkes Bay
An area of low pressure to the east of New Zealand directs a moist southerly flow over the North Island during Tuesday and Wednesday. An associated front is expected to lie slow-moving about Hawkes Bay during this time, enhancing the rainfall in that region.
People are advised to keep up to date with forecasts in case this Watch is upgraded to a full Warning, or additional areas are placed on Watch.
Valid: 30 hours from 5:00pm Tuesday to 11:00pm Wednesday
Forecast: Periods of heavy rain. Rainfall amounts may approach warning criteria, especially about the hills and ranges.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
