Kia ora e te whānau,
As we continue recovering from the recent floods and storms, we are actively tracking the arrival of Cyclone Vaianu with major wind impacts expected late this afternoon.

A 7-day State of Emergency for Northland is in place to support response and any evacuation efforts.

Current situation:
• Orange weather warnings are in place for the Far North
• Impacts are expected to begin late today, spreading across the North Island and upper South Island through Sunday
• This system may bring damaging winds, heavy rain, flooding, coastal inundation, power outages, road closures, and the potential for isolated communities
• This has the potential to be a significant and damaging weather
Emergency agencies including NEMA, Civil Defence, NZDF, Police, and FENZ are actively monitoring the situation and preparing response efforts.

Stay updated:

Please take care:
• Do not drive through floodwaters — they may be deeper than they appear and can hide debris
• Stay home unless absolutely necessary
• If someone is in immediate danger, call 111. Only assist if it is safe to do so

Wai Ora marae is an evacuation hub should any whanau need a safe place to come together or are being impacted by cylcone Vaianu. First point of contact is Jason Hakaria
