Power is still out for about 2000 properties in the lower and central North Island after Thursday's severe storm. While locals are surveying the damage there - a State of emergency has been declared in Southland, where severe weather has also hit power and water sources. In the Tararua town of Eketahuna, the sun is shining after two days of destructive winds ripped up trees, flipped caravans, and tore down sheds. Reporter Mary Argue was there.
