These severe thunderstorms are moving towards the southeast, and are expected to lie near RAWENE, MANGAMUKA, KOHUKOHU and BROADWOOD at 06:07 pm and near RAWENE, PUNAKITERE and KOHUKOHU at 06:37 pm.

These thunderstorms are expected to be accompanied by very heavy rain.

Impact:

Very heavy rain can cause surface and/or flash flooding about streams, gullies and urban areas, and make driving conditions extremely hazardous.</description><instruction>The National Emergency Management Agency advises that as storms approach you should:
    - Take shelter, preferably indoors away from windows;
    - Avoid sheltering under trees, if outside;
    - Get back to land, if outdoors on the water;
    - Move cars under cover or away from trees;
    - Secure any loose objects around your property;
    - Check that drains and gutters are clear;
    - Be ready to slow down or stop, if driving.
During and after the storm, you should also:
    - Beware of fallen trees and power lines;
    - Avoid streams and drains as you may be swept away in flash flooding.</instruction><web>https://www.metservice.com/warnings/home</web><parameter><valueName>ColourCode</valueName><value>Red</value></parameter><parameter><valueName>ColourCodeHex</valueName><value>#FF181E</value></parameter><area><areaDesc>Far North</areaDesc><polygon>-35.298,173.339 -35.348,173.369 -35.396,173.409 -35.446,173.458 -35.479,173.506 -35.490,173.556 -35.492,173.606 -35.462,173.655 -35.412,173.703 -35.364,173.684 -35.319,173.635 -35.269,173.589 -35.219,173.551 -35.181,173.502 -35.151,173.359 -35.173,173.332 -35.298,173.339</polygon></area></info><Signature xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#"><SignedInfo><CanonicalizationMethod Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-xml-c14n-20010315#WithComments"/><SignatureMethod Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmldsig-more#rsa-sha256"/><Reference URI=""><Transforms><Transform Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2000/09/xmldsig#enveloped-signature"/></Transforms><DigestMethod Algorithm="http://www.w3.org/2001/04/xmlenc#sha256"/><DigestValue>G2Q+qIG1gHOx0SN0IffQARzBZ9rwsESunx0KVsMsFfo=</DigestValue></Reference></SignedInfo><SignatureValue>InF69tVQrzDQYguhcjcr8Y/kOHDbV2J1NLtZ+dNXYII5h+iBoTQwPrpSFs9/Dz3hiss1EC8/Y5hE&#13;
