Torrential rain, big hail stones and severe thunderstorms forecast for some areas in the Waikato may cause flash flooding, damage to property and make for hazardous driving conditions.

The MetService wire reported severe weather patterns in Tokoroa around 4:30pm and a severe thunderstorm warning has been issued for the following areas:

People residing in these locations should be aware of hazardous driving conditions and people outdoors should seek shelter if necessary.

The National Emergecy Management Agency (NEMA) advises people to secure any loose objects on their property, move vehicles into shelter, and be aware of fallen trees and power lines.

Residents can keep up to date with the latest information by going heading to the MetService Weather Warnings Page.
