HI
got a newsletter from a farm insurance company:
2.5 million $ of damage occured from that recent severe storm in the south taranaki/wangauni area!
Just about every farm sustained damage to trees/power lines/sheds/haybarns, cowsheds and fences!
It was described as the worst storm in living memory.

Did they give a date? It couldnt have been that first Antarctic cold front as weakened significantly after it left the Nelson area.

Its quite obviously the weather bomb this is refering to isnt it?

yup, the recent weather bomb
