Summary

State Highway Seven is back open after flooding forced an early Wednesday shutdown, but drivers are urged to proceed with caution as hidden dangers remain. Emergency crews responded 13 times to flooded homes in the Grey District, while MetService recorded 54mm of rain in just six hours—triggering slips in Dobson. Authorities warn: always check road conditions and allow extra travel time when Mother Nature’s mood turns stormy.
