What you need to know:
- A rain watch will be in place from 1am Sunday, 12 February to noon Tuesday, 14 February and a strong wind watch from noon Sunday to midnight Tuesday.
- 200mm to 300mm of rain is predicted to fall over the course of the storm along with severe gales. These are likely to be upgraded.
- Streams and rivers may rise rapidly, and surface flooding, slips and flood water are likely to close roads.
- The high forecast winds may cause falling trees which can cause power outages and further hazards on the road.
Civil Defence is again asking Northlanders to ensure they are prepared. They are reminding residents to:
- Secure outdoor furniture and structures
- Relocate items from any areas of your property that are prone to flooding
- Anchor recreational vessels in a sheltered place at a secure berth and be prepared to run engines/motor against the wind.
- Relocate stock from flood-prone areas and bring pets inside
- Have supplies including food and medications ready in case of any power outages or if you are isolated for a period. Have a grab bag and a plan in case you need to evacuate.
These updates can also be viewed on the Civil Defence section of the Northland Regional Council website: www.nrc.govt.nz...
For more tips on preparing for severe weather check out the Get Ready website.
If you feel you, your family and/or your property are at risk, immediately contact emergency services on 111.

So we’ve created Flooded with Love - a space to recognise our people: those who helped with the clean up, rescued a pet (or a neighbour), pushed cars out of water, directed traffic, loaned out equipment, shared shelter, or simply stopped for a supportive chat or a cup of tea.
Help us tell these stories and recognise the goodness that exists in our communities.
Our February issue of our Seniors Newsletter is out now. In this issue we're keeping you in the know how on copper withdrawal and how that may affect you, plus lots more.
