Three years on since Cyclone Gabrielle.

We are still so thankful to everyone who assisted and helped our community. This heavy rain will be very distressing for many and there's high winds and worse weather still to come. Please take care everybody! 🩷☔️

Hope everyone is keeping safe and dry with all the heavy rain. ☔️🌧🌩 We know it can be tough for some as it's the eve of the 3rd anniversary since Cyclone Gabrielle. 🥺
Sending you all love and hugs 🩷🫶🤗
We will get through this together!

WEATHER UPDATE 🌧️
** 10.40am, Saturday 14 February 2026 **
MetService has issued an Orange Rain Warning. Please see our most recent post for updated information.

** 4.30pm, Friday 13 February 2026 **

Kia ora koutou Hawke’s Bay,
You may have seen reports of severe weather affecting other parts of the country, with Warnings already in place nearby.
We wouldn’t usually post about a Severe Weather Watch, but we’re doing so this time because there’s still some uncertainty around the track of a significant low-pressure system expected to affect eastern parts of the North Island and the upper South Island on Sunday and Monday.

CURRENT SITUATION

MetService has issued a Heavy Rain Watch for all of Hawke’s Bay.

This is currently in effect from 3.00pm today until 6.00pm Sunday, 15 February.

WHAT WE ARE DOING

We’re coordinating with local councils, MetService, and partner agencies, and closely monitoring updated forecasts.

A multi-agency regional coordination meeting will be held on Saturday. This will include the latest information from MetService and HB Regional Council based on the most up-to-date modelling.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Forecast:
- Periods of heavy rain, with a chance of thunderstorms, until early Saturday morning.

- Localised downpours of 25–40mm per hour are possible, especially inland.

- More widespread heavy rain is expected from Saturday evening, particularly about the Wairoa District.

- There is a high chance parts of the region will be upgraded to a Warning for late Saturday into Sunday.

Possible impacts:
- Streams and rivers may rise rapidly.

- Surface flooding and slips are possible.

WHAT YOU CAN DO

- Clear drains and gutters now to help reduce surface flooding.

- Avoid low-lying areas during heavy rain.

- Drive to the conditions.

- If you’re concerned about surface flooding in your area, contact your local council.

Congratulations to Erin who has become fully qualified as a Pharmacy Technician for the second time!!! 🥳👩‍🎓 She first qualified in the 80s, but decided to refresh her knowledge and skills by doing the new course over the past 3 years. Well done, we are so proud of your achievement! 👏
We want to give special thanks to the support of supervising pharmacists Anja, Amy and Rebekah over the past few years marking her assessments, giving her advice and showing her how to do something she wasn't sure of. It's been incredible watching your growth and confidence especially over the past few years.

Thank you to the amazing team at Madame Social for hosting our end of year staff celebration. It was a special night as we celebrated me (Rebekah) being owner of the pharmacy for over 10 years. And some of our lovely staff also reached their 10 year anniversaries! 🥳🥂

🤵‍♂Robin who is now in his 80s is still helping us with our daily deliveries to Hastings/Flaxmere.

💃💃💃And our beautiful Ella, Erin & Kelly (who are all still young and 21) are our super ninjas in the dispensary.

It was an honour and pleasure to present them with their anniversary gifts: a game of golf 🏌‍♂️for 2 at Cape Kidnappers for Robin and diamonds 💎 for the girls!

Thank you again to my amazing and wonderful team.
Thank you to Amy, Anya, Dave, Ella, Emma, Erin, Garry, Gaye, Gordon, Grant, Heather, Iveta, Jeff, Kelly, Louise, Misty, Moana, Robin, Shane & Simon. I couldn't do it without each and every one of you. Your dedication, and hard work to love and serve me, each other and our community is inspiring and certainly appreciated so much by me! 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🙌🩷🩷🩷💋💋💋
