The wild weather swept up to the North Island today, with a 10m wave recorded as huge swells hammered Wellington’s coastline. Most Interislander and Bluebridge ferries were unable to leave the harbour, and winds up to 133km/h meant flights in and out of the capital were cancelled.
Meanwhile, in the South Island, there was snow in the high country and flooding down below, and sometimes it was really hard to find a little patch of dry land. Alexa Cook begins our coverage from a wet and windy Wellington.➡️ SUBSCRIBE:
