The effects of Cyclone Wati are being felt in Northland today, but MetService says the storm is weakening. Forecaster Bob Lake says Wati has been downgraded from a tropical cyclone, but the low-pressure system still holds rain and thunderstorms.
Strong east to northeast winds will rise to gale force around the Northland, Auckland and Coromandel Coasts this afternoon.
Mr Lake says the North Island is on the fringe of the storm as it swirls south towards the North Central Tasman.
