30th January 2023
Overnight we saw extensive surface flooding, recording up to 60mm of rain in the north.
We received 148 requests for flood-related issues, two of which were to do with house flooding. FENZ had 30 call outs overnight and there were a number of landslips recorded including a significant one in Titirangi, which damaged a car port. There are road closures as a result of the landslips.
An Emergency Mobile Alert ‘text’ was sent to mobile phones across Auckland last night. This was done due to the potential effects from a heavy rain and thunderstorm warning over the Auckland area.
