Good morning everyone,

All warnings and watches have been lifted but it’s still going to be a bit wet and miserable today. Expect showers across the region, heavy at times, particularly for the Kāpiti Coast.

Continue to take extra care when out and about, especially on the roads.

Have a safe weekend
