⚠ We are now in a full scale civil defence emergency, with multiple simultaneous challenges for our response and recovery teams. ⚠

This is the time for community.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 If you can open your door and offer a meal or a cup of tea to friends and neighbours, please contact them.
💪 If you have special skills and abilities, please look around your neighbourhood and see who needs a hand. Take the initiative and work within your ability.

It's also time to stop taking any further risks. Follow the published official advice. Please do not enter flood waters. Do not attempt to perform work that puts you in danger. Do not approach downed power lines. Be particularly aware of the risk of land-slides. Please do not approach flooded rivers or viewing-platforms. Please stay out of forests and our walking tracks.

Be prepared in case your own situation becomes more challenging.
💧 If you have running water, fill up some bottles as an emergency supply. If you're dependent on your emergency supplies now, plan for how you can make them last.

A lot of our communities are in a vulnerable place right now. If you're able to help, it's time.

Take the time to read about how Cyclone Gabrielle is affecting our District, and how to report further issues at the link below.

14th February - 10:45am Update: National State of Emergency
Minister for Emergency Management, Kieran McAnulty, has confirmed a National State of Emergency this morning due to the widespread damage across the country due to Cyclone Gabrielle.

While many regions have already declared a local state of emergency, a National State of Emergency gives the National Controller legal authority to apply resources across the country in support of a national level response.

Here's what you need to know:
- Heavy rain red warnings are in place for Northland and Hawke's Bay, with red strong wind warnings also for Northland, Coromandel and Taranaki. Check all weather warnings on the MetService website.
- States of emergency have been declared in Northland, Auckland, Tairāwhiti, Ōpōtiki, Thames-Coromandel District, Waikato District, Hauraki District, Whakatāne District, Bay of Plenty, Napier and Hastings.
- There has been a landslide in Murawai with one firefighter missing.
- Gisborne is feared cut off and the east coast of the Coromandel Peninsula. Residents are to take note of the Welfare Centres for Gisborne and Coromandel.
- A number of road closures are in place across the North Island. View these on the Waka Kotahi NZTA website.
- Fire and Emergency is urging people to only call 111 if life or safety is at risk after a surge in calls.
- In Auckland there are 27 shelters and civil defence centres where people can go in an emergency.

Stuff are posting live updates and have shared what you need in your 3-day emergency kit. Stay up to date with Civil Defence updates and track the storm here.

2pm Update for Hawke's Bay:
Multiple evacuations needed in Puketapu, Esk Valley, Rissington, Omahu, Waiohiki, Jervoistown and Meeanee and Waipawa.
Many remain trapped in cars and houses. Several bridges have been taken out with access between Hastings and Napier now cutoff. More than 20,000 people are without power and cellphone communication in and out of the region is patchy.
Omahu residents needing shelter can go to Hastings Sports' Centre. Taradale residents can head to St Joseph's Māori Girls' School.
