Due to high winds our transfer stations at Inglewood, Waitara and Okato are closed for the rest of today.
Please don't travel unnecessarily and avoid rivers, the coastline and floodwaters. Have a get ready kit handy with a few emergency supplies if the power goes out. Take care, hunker down, and brace for this storm to pass.
Severe weather is causing surface flooding, tree and road damage and power outages. @MetService’s Orange heavy rain and strong wind warning stands until 3pm today, expected to worsen through midday.
We've localised surface flooding in Ōkato and parts of South Taranaki. Our local councils have been notified. Please only travel if necessary and avoid driving through flood waters as there could be debris or the road could have moved underneath.
We have road closures, surface flooding, slips and wastewater overflows in South Taranaki after heavy rain across the district. Extreme care is needed. Tropical Cyclone Dovi is expected to bring strong winds starting tomorrow. For more see southtaranaki.com/our-council/ne…
Weather monitoring continues as @MetService has issued Orange warnings for Taranaki this weekend, both heavy rain and strong wind. Be prepared, have a plan, and be ready to act quickly.
Over the past 6 hours rain has been spreading across central New Zealand from the northwest, and more is on the way. Track the rain here bit.ly/NZRainRadar ^PL
Here are the latest Severe Weather Warnings and Watches for heavy rain and severe gales expected this weekend bit.ly/AllWarnings ^PL
🟧 Severe Weather Update 🟨 Rain is starting to spread over the country and is forecast to intensify later today. Several Heavy Rain Warnings & Watches come into force this afternoon/evening before Cyclone Dovi gets overly close to our shores. bit.ly/AllWarnings
8:58pm Thursday 10 Feb. MetService New Zealand has now upgraded all of Taranaki from a Watch to a Severe Weather Warning starting from 1pm on Friday. Note this is an Orange level warning, not a Red warning as per last weekend which is reserved for the most extreme events.
Heavy rain before #CycloneDovi gets too close 🌧 The image shows 24 hours worth of rain accumulation up to midday on Saturday and shows the approximate forecast position of Dovi. Gusty winds are also forecast. Check the current official warnings here: bit.ly/AllWarnings
🟧 Severe Weather Forecast 🟨 The potential for heavy rain lingers around the centre of the country as we remain under the influence of a very warm and humid subtropical airmass through to the end of this week.
Mid Parihaka Road Bridge - closed until thorough engineering assessment is complete. Weld St/Browne St in Normanby - now open. Tangahoe Valley Rd – closed. Rawhitiroa Rd - Mangamingi Saddle (14km from Eltham) will reopen to two lanes by tonight. Stent Rd now open.
WOW ... figures here from the @MetService aren't a surprise! 🌧️
*SH ROAD UPDATE* SH45 between Okato and Opunake is open but there is 50km/h speed restriction in place between Rahotu and Pungarehu. There are also speed restrictions at SH3, Mokoia, near the Tangahoe Bridge after yesterday's slip. Please take care.
South Taranaki road closures: Weld St/Browne St in Normanby. Tangahoe Valley Rd – Closed at the 4.1km mark Rawhitiroa Rd – Mangamingi Saddle (14km from Eltham) - Alternative access via Wingrove Road.
*FLOOD UPDATE* Part 3/3 Rivers around the region are flowing at high levels but are easing. We are monitoring the Waitotara River. Please stay away from rivers and do not swim in rivers and floodwaters. Treat all flood waters as contaminated.
*FLOOD UPDATE* Part 2 In addition to SH45 being closed, Rawhitiroa Road is blocked due to a slip at the Mangamingi Saddle and Tangahoe Valley Road is blocked due to a slip as well.
*FLOOD UPDATE* Part 1 Severe rain has hampered Taranaki, especially around the coast. We've had over a month's rain in 3 days. SH45 is closed between Okato and Opunake. A detour is in place between Puniho, Wiremu and Ihaia roads.

This afternoon's update to the track for #CycloneDovi, fresh from bit.ly/TropicalCyclon…. Note: Blue shade is the possible path of Dovi, NOT the extent of Severe weather. Severe weather will hit other parts of NZ, including the upper South Island.
🟧 Severe Weather Update 🟨 Rain is starting to spread over the country and is forecast to intensify later today. Several Heavy Rain Warnings & Watches come into force this afternoon/evening before Cyclone Dovi gets overly close to our shores. bit.ly/AllWarnings
Um….WHAT???
WOW ... figures here from the @MetService aren't a surprise! 🌧️
🌧 An extraordinary amount of rain fell in Taranaki during the Red Warning event on Saturday and Sunday after such a dry January, and many communities were impacted. Here are the rainfall totals. For context, New Plymouth averages 82mm across the entire month of February.
🌋 Check out these cool new infographics for potential risks of an eruption at Taranaki Maunga that the team at VRS helped create 🌋
Today we are proud to release with @gnsscience new infographics showing what might happen in an eruption of Taranaki Maunga. Download the full range of ingraphics on our website > bit.ly/3qZmHIy
While we can’t predict exactly when & where an eruption will happen, we can be prepared. We shouldn’t be scared about the risk, Chief Resilience & Research Officer Jo Horrocks says having a plan is important for people living in close proximity to 🌋, like in Taranaki & Auckland.

This maybe #6 in the @TaranakiCD set of #volcano posters but the hazards are no less important
6. Last 3 volcanic processes in one post today. Lava flows are streams of molten rock, Ballistics are flying lava. Gases emit before, during, and after eruptions and can form acid rain or volcanic fog, also called ‘vog’. Poster downloads at bit.ly/3qZmHIy
@TaranakiCD @gnsscience Great work! From your friends "further afield" in the Manawatū-Whanganui CDEMG. 😅

@chappronneuiltv Merci ! Nous sommes ravis que vous l'ayez trouvé utile.
Helped @TeresaGord and @TaranakiCD lead the co-design a new series of infographics for the region - one of my favourite pieces of communication work for such a beautiful Maunga. 🗻 See more on their page 👇🏼

@hazardgirl09 @TeresaGord @TaranakiCD I grew up seeing comms like these in Taranaki - as a kid it was one of the things that grew my interest in geology. Great to see how good these are now!
