A strong storm passed through Dunedin overnight, bringing heavy rain and gusty winds. By morning, council crews were clearing fallen branches from several streets. The local news report stated that the storm caused delays to buses and made walking conditions slippery. In an interview, a resident said the storm was “the worst weather we have had all year”. The MetService warned drivers to take extra care because of surface flooding on low-lying roads. Schools remained open, but some sports practices were cancelled.
