Storms and Floods

Flooding in New Zealand


Flooding has forced two main South Island roads to close, as heavy rain continues to ravage parts of the island. A one-lane bridge over the Wanganui River at Harihari on the West Coast has been washed away, cutting off State Highway 6.


Tropical Cyclone Dumile


Tropical Cyclone Dumlie forms in the Indian Ocean and is located 565 nm north of La Reunion. TC Dumile is forecast to strike Reunion as a tropical cyclone at about 18:00 on 3 January. The maximum Storm surge height is expected to be 0.1m in Voloina, Madagascar.


Tropical Cyclone Freda


TC Freda weakens after passing over New Caledonia.
