At 1045 we go around the motu to Matthew Rosenberg in Gisborne: There's been more grim weather for rain rashed Gisborne causing more road damage.
Matthew updates on the impact, particularly for farmers and growers, including problems transporting produce to markets. He's also been talking to some locals about what is happening with perpetual leases.
And local broadcaster, Kahu Waitoa is stepping away from the microphone after 26 years as breakfast host at Radio Ngāti Porou.
