More roads were closed overnight, motorists are stranded and snow is forecast for highways as a cold snap sweeps over much of the country.
About 50 people had an unexpected stay at Arthurs Pass village last night, with State Highway 73 closed either side due to heavy snow.
Meanwhile, people in Pahiatua in Tararua District will be continuing to clean up after some homes in the town were flooded on Sunday.
Crews are clearing rocks and trees on SH2 on the Remutaka Hill this morning.
