The weather has now cleared up and our 111 fire communication centres have received only six weather-related call outs in the Auckland region since 6pm last night.

However, the chances of slips, fallen trees and infrastructure damage remain high.

Continue to take care when moving through the urban areas due to the ongoing effects of the weather event.

Our crews are ready to assist and provide support to Emergency Management.

Remember, in an emergency do not wait - dial 111. We are here to help.
