Torrential Rains
A month of indifferent weather reached a climax one night last week when torrential rains lashed portions of the East Coast. At Mahia serious damage was done to communications on the peninsula. At Te Puia Springs, roads became impassable. At Gisborne, where nearly an inch of rain fell in an hour, flooding occurred in many parts of the city.
