This wave event is big, even for the west coast, with forecast swell over 5 metres and maximum wave height over 10 metres possible. The highest risk period is within 1-2 hours of high tide.

The next high tide for the coastline from Marokopa to Mōkau is around 2pm on Saturday. For Sunday, high tide is around 2.50pm.

Hydrant Flushing in Mokau 15 February 2023

Affected streets are:
Oha Street
Tainui Street
Aria Terrace
Rangi St
Rerenga St
SH3
During this time, we’ll make every effort to minimise the impact on supply.
Please – flush your house water by opening your taps and run for about 2-5 minutes. This will remove the suspended solids created during water flushing.
