Almost 50mm of rain fell in the Wellington region last night, and the temperature on Monday is expected to get to just 12C, with heavy and possibly thundery showers, and gale northerlies easing.

FORECAST: Northwest winds may approach severe gale in exposed places at times. Winds should ease from the south this afternoon and evening.

Wind gusts of this strength can cause some structural damage, including trees and powerlines, and may make driving hazardous. If any tornadoes do occur, they will only affect very localised areas.

Lightning strikes were reported around Wellington on Monday morning, and MetService has a Severe Thunderstorm watch in force for the region.

People are advised to keep up to date with the latest forecasts and warnings here.

Hey neighbours, are you thinking of borrowing money by taking out a loan?

Before you do - there's a few things you really need to know about. Take a minute and read the tips below to ensure you're asking the right questions and getting the best loan for you.

1. Shop around! Interest rates, fees and terms must be made available to you by the lender. Make sure you compare details and make an informed decision about what loan is best for you.

2. Choose a lender. Did you know that when you borrow money to buy something, you don’t have to borrow from the same person who is selling the goods?

3. Understand. Whoever is loaning you the money must ask questions to make sure you can afford the loan. They also need to help you understand the key terms of the loan.

4. Be prepared. You'll need to provide your lender with information to show that you can afford to repay the loan. This might include proof of income and expenses so make sure you have it ready.

Don't get on Auntie's bad side and do your research! You can find more information here.
