MetService has issued a high wind warning for Auckland, expecting gusts of up to 110 km/h, while lines company Vector said there was a higher-than-usual likelihood of power cuts as a result.
Chief networks officer Andre Botha said strong wind gusts had the potential to damage power lines either directly, or indirectly by causing vegetation and debris to blow into lines.
"Vector is preparing response teams to respond as quickly as possible to any power outages caused by the high winds," Botha said.
Keep up to date wit the latest here.
Vector warns people to stay away from damaged electrical equipment and report issues by phoning us 0508 VECTOR.

We are very excited to introduce our new addition to the team Joe! Joe comes to AF Hobsonville with over five years of personal training experience and is excited to meet our awesome members!
A little about Joe ⬇️
Growing up around bodybuilders, I've always taken a strong interest in how the body is manipulated through nutrition, training, and proper supplementation. Whether it’s fat-loss, muscle building, improving muscle tone, or strength, as a personal trainer I work to get my clients results by taking a holistic approach. I not only work to improve my client’s strength or fitness goals, but also their quality of life.
✅✅ welcome to the team mate! ✅✅
