SEVERE WEATHER WARNING.
ISSUED BY MetService AT 8:07pm 21-Mar-2012
URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST IN: Coromandel Peninsula, Bay Of Plenty
Rotorua, Gisborne

BRIEF BURST OF HEAVY RAIN EXPECTED OVER COROMANDEL PENINSULA, BAY OF
PLENTY AND NORTHERN GISBORNE TONIGHT.
A subtropical low is expected to move southwards across the North
Island overnight Wednesday and early Thursday morning. This low is
fairly fast moving so rainfall amounts are not expected to be
excessive, however, localised bursts of intense rainfall are likely
over a short period of time tonight, affecting Coromandel Peninsula,
Bay of Plenty and northern Gisborne.
People in these areas are advised that these localised heavy falls
are likely to bring surface flooding and make driving hazardous.
