The NZ Transport Agency is reminding drivers in and around the Hawkes Bay region to drive to the conditions with rain, cool temperatures and the possibility of snow contributing to challenging driving conditions.
From Friday afternoon to early Sunday morning, there is a watch out for heavy rain and the possibility of snow accumulations, particularly on the high country, the Napier-Taupo Road (SH5) and Napier-Taihape Road.
