That covers a large chunk of the North Island, but it's that north eastern corner of the North Island most exposed to both damaging winds and flooding rains: from Coromandel Peninsula to East Cape to Hawke's Bay. IBM (our data here at WeatherWatch.co.nz) takes all these computer models and crunches it into a forecast for you, so you don't have to spend your time on Windy comparing models. "Severe warnings are in force by MetService and these cover a large portion of the North Island. NZ's shape means the further this low moves eastwards, the greater the reduction in wind and rainfall totals for other areas to the west and south. "If the modelling is wrong, the storm could still come in closer, which is why the MetService warnings are in place as for some this is quite a borderline event." "Perhaps the worst part of this event is that areas most recently hit by flooding, slips and road closures are again most in the firing line for damaging winds and flooding rains. The further east Fili goes, the less severe weather will be in western and southern areas of the North Island.
