The Interislander and Bluebridge ferry companies have cancelled multiple sailings as severe weather rolls through the Wellington and the Top of the South today.

Wellington is bracing for heavy swells of up to 6 metres as a front bringing heavy rain and gales makes its way up the country.

All Interislander Services between Picton and Wellington today have been cancelled, with today's Bluebridge sailings cancelled and tomorrow's early morning services also scratched.
