Horizons Regional Council emergency and river management staff are monitoring river levels across the region following rain in most catchments.
Horizons river management group manager Ramon Strong says staff will continue to keep watch over the long weekend and are on standby to respond if required.
"While more rain is
forecasted for the region, it is not at warning levels and at this stage we don't anticipate any issues.
"Our staff have been out inspecting flood assets today and will be ready to operate any of these if needed."
Users of Horizons' website's environmental data function may have noticed a slight lag in updates on Friday. Horizons is aware of this issue and expects it to be resolved before Saturday.
