A landslip in Whitby, Porirua, the previous evening harmed two properties on Moonsail Drive. The board said occupants were securely cleared by Fire and Emergency from one, and the other was abandoned.

A neighbor disclosed to RNZ the tenants of the most exceedingly terrible hit of the two properties had left quite recently the day preceding, and that earth and soil from the slip had approached the house.

Adding to the worker burdens, drivers on State Highway 2 north of Wellington were confronting delays because of an accident impeding a northward path, north of the Haywards trade.

In Bay of Plenty, then, a hefty downpour cautioning stays set up for the Wairoa locale with falls of up to 15mm an hour conjecture.
