Not really awesome as such but mother natures power is...8 weeks ago we were at the tail end of the worst drought in decades, last nights rain described as a 1 in 500 year event. Whangarei Dam got to 100% capacity after a significant downpour on Wednesday. Then we got more rain last night. Here’s a mind blowing fact. The Hatea River at Whareora Road peaked at over 500 cubic meters of water per second at 10pm last night. That’s half a million litres per second! 
 To put this in comparison, the Huka Falls near Taupo is flowing at 200cu/m/s and the average flow for the whole Waikato river is 340cu/m/s.Anyone that's been the Whangarei, this is the Riverside BP last night

@taniwharugby sitting up on our hill looking at Ngunguru estuary, looking very high but I don't think it's going to flood the village at high tide. Fingers crossed

@Machpants seems very isolated pockets of flooding in town, with Rathbone Street flooding, Porowini Ave under water last night, but I spoke to a few clients this morning in Finlayson St, Lower Dent, Reyburn, Lower Cameron St and the Cafes in the Basin are all ok.

@MiketheSnow We are all going to hell for laughing at that. I even know where they are and he has they same fucked up sense of humour as everybody else around there - like my father in law.

@taniwharugby is the whining like a pouty teenage girl an optional extra?

Sounds fantastic, but then I'm a fan of induction noise and straight cut gears in performance vehicles, so electric motor whine isn't an issue.

I’d personally murder anyone who flew a drone like that near my horse (I assume it’s his horse, so he’s just an idiot).
