463161 2006-06-15 04:47:00 Huh. And I look out my window and see brilliant sunshine and no sign of the white stuff for miles and miles............ pctek (84)
463162 2006-06-15 06:17:00 Nice pic, was worth a look. Battleneter (60)
463163 2006-06-15 06:18:00 Wow !! Took me ages to load that pic on my crippled connection but it was well worth it. Can see exactly how much of the South Island got a dumping - far more than I thought.

Brrrrrrrr !!

463165 2006-06-15 09:41:00 We have never had a storm like that before in the 33 years I have been here. zqwerty (97)
463166 2006-06-15 10:33:00 In-laws still under a foot of snow down in South Canty and no immediate prospect of power as all the power poles have been snapped as well as the lines down. Translate that to One Auckland News speak - they haven't had a latte for quite a while, and the Chardonnay is looking a bit on the chilly side. Twelvevolts (5457)
463167 2006-06-15 21:59:00 Its occurred to me with the popularity of heat pumps instead of woodburners, that some people may be having a real problem. pctek (84)
463168 2006-06-17 02:46:00 The South Island power situation is turning into a real crisis with houses still not having power or water today and in some cases under advice they won't have it for three weeks. This has got well past the point of going without a latte for five minutes but doesn't seem to be getting quite the news coverage. Twelvevolts (5457)
463169 2006-06-17 04:44:00 I see that some hopeful has this listed on Trade me at start price of $25.
