No snow to low levels in canterbury. Infact the southerly change looks very weak with little to no rain.

there are still rural people in canterbury who still do not have power reconnected, although most should be by the end of this week?
but alot of the problems are now down to old service lines, and farmers are being encoured to in the future install power underground
also, the power companies had lines designed to handle wet sticky snow near the foothills, but not the coast......that is where the most failures have been.....from info i read from fonterra....

Very few are still without power, and mostly at remote stations. Cold, snowy weather is simply a fact of life down here afterall, and people are (or should be) prepared for it.squid wrote:ahh fair enough gary. wow people still without power what it has been about 2 weeks or more since the 1st snowstom went through I wonder how the are handling this is frezzing conditions
