Default Tongariro and Turangi Flooding

The TT has broken its banks as well and people have been evacuated.

The Hinemaia is running 2 metres over the top of the damn.

The Tongariro usually flows at 16 m3/sec, she is running at 1005m3/sec.

It is getting nasty all round, and looks like the lower North Island is in
for another pasting later this afternoon.

Tony,
long time no see.
Was at a surfcasting competition today the winning fish was the only one
caught........a 30gm herring. Poor bugger had to stand up and take the prize
of beer fridge and $1000. I guess the prize far outweighed the embarrassment
