Anyone affected by the weather.

Currently my electric cables are holding up the neighbours tree and I have someones shed in my new garden - All at the house I bought less than 24 hours ago.

We were evacuated from our rental along with the neighbours on each side due a dodgy looking tree which has dropped a lot of its branches but is still standing thankfully.

My OH & son are sleeping at another neighbours further down the road while I am at work.

After look at the video of the tree that came down in Collingwood St (Nelson) and split a house in two I think Ive gotten off lightly

Hopefully the worst is past.

Didn't even move my plastic deck furniture on the North Shore. I was out and about in South Auckland doing home visits at work during the morning rain and wind but didnt think it was too bad really, must have skipped around where I was!

Seems to have hit the SI quite bad in places.
