In light of my previous post in this thread, I might have over-reacted somewhat. :|

216497 2004-02-20 10:00:00 Hi ya,

just another update here.

my brother got so desperate he went and bought a motor bike (2nd habd farm bike) and has managed to ride this up the blocked road to his farm this morning taking how many hours we are not certain. he took enough food for himself for a couple of days, and have just heard that the road has been blocked / closed more so than before due to new slipping, and the river is flooding again due to the rain we have had, so the forcast is not good and where this water will end up is any ones guessand what other damage it can do ?????

a major amount of power poles and telephone poles is missing up this valley, replacing them is becoming difficult as great sections are gone, poles and wire - lines making it a nightmare for the power people, the frustration levels for these guys is very high, in their quest to get the power back on.
they have done a fantastic job so far.

and the wind on Monday peaked at approx 150 k's and reports and forcasts tonight wire the wire / satelite and local power watch is forecasting it to get up to at least 140 k's and more rain is forecast.

so every one be prepared, sit tight and hope for the best.

it cant get much worse can it?

216499 2004-02-20 22:19:00 Also in Wanganui. I guess we were lucky, no serious problems on our section. Six Sunlowers & twelve Sweetcorn plants gave up the ghost & laid down. A house up the street by the same creek as Metla had two huge trees come down, feet were in the creek. Fortunatly only the leafy tops hit the house. Big cleanup there this last couple of days.
Beautiful Wanganui looks somewhat dishevelled at the moment, but I am sure it will all "come right". Getting ready for the next big blow tonight!!! To all those who are suffering what can one say??? I say "KEEP SMILING & BE HAPPY" Good Fortune be with you. PJ
