Philip Duncan covers the track of last night’s storm, where it’s placed now and what New Zealand can expect over today, the coming weekend and for the start of October next week. For today the low has stalled just west of Auckland and tonight will drift back across the North Island bringing strong westerlies to Northland and Auckland. Most other places should see winds easing as the centre of the low starts to weaken significantly across Thursday. A west to south west flow will stay with the country until Monday.

A "handful" of weather-related jobs meant emergency services were less busy last night.
Fire Service northern communications shift manager Scott Osmond said about five jobs in Auckland and Northland were reported.
They were mainly fallen trees and power lines.
It was "nothing notable" compared to the previous night.
Landslips and debris on the roads, which caused problems for motorists yesterday, had been mostly cleared.
One area of road - the junction of State Highway 16 leading to Helensville - was closed to motorcycles and cars this morning due to flooding.
The Transport Agency said detours were in place for these vehicles. Those in four-wheel-drives and heavy vehicles using the road should take extra care.
In other parts of the country, emergency services said no weather-related incidents had been reported overnight.
Roads blocked after yesterday's stormy weather had also been cleared.
Met Service said the low, which had brought heavy rain and gales to the North Island and parts of the South Island, was now moving towards the east of the country.
While another bout of stormy weather was expected tomorrow, the forecast service have advised it should not stay for long.
