Possible flash flooding in Canterbury
« on: January 10, 2013, 06:50:36 PM »
Police have received reports that a large surge of water is visible from the air moving down the Waimakiri River towards the sea.
Police are requesting the public move away from the low lying river bank areas of all Canterbury rivers.
