MetService has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch and a Strong Wind Warning for Auckland, advising residents to prepare for a windy afternoon and evening. Despite a night of severe gales, the winds have finally eased in the North Island, bringing relief to many. However, Auckland remains on high alert as the city grapples with the aftermath of the storm, with power outages still affecting thousands.

The Severe Thunderstorm Warning spans across Rodney, Gulf, Thames Coromandel, Kaipara, Auckland City, Waikato, Hauraki, Waitakere, Franklin, and Albany. Strong wind gusts reaching up to 120km/h continue to sweep over Auckland, heightening the weather warnings.
