severe weather warnings

always come just as you have something nice planned/ thunderstorms a house-sized slip heavy rain causing localised areas of surface flooding the grounds and soil will be sodden nil visibility chains essential care required snow and black ice plus low avalanche hazard/ the sheep were loaded into a cargo net and flown out by helicopter/ the Desert Road is closed/ showers have left the Rimutakas slippery and icy/ there will be a cold snap a disturbed westerly flow a sudden southerly change gusts and gales/ we like our weather in New Zealand gives us something to talk about flooding on the West Coast and Aucklanders are likely to get drenched later today
