Water resources review ( February-April)
River flows
February – April river flows
River flows were well above normal in Northland, mainly as a result of the severe flood events in April. Some central North Island catchments had normal river flows for this time of year, but flows were below normal for the rest of the country. Record low flows occurred for some rivers in Marlborough, the Southern Alps, and Southland.
