The rain is expected to clear Wednesday afternoon to make way for some more fine weather.
From today, Cyclone Victor – which has been reclassified as a tropical low – is to undergo a transition into a mid-latitude low near the Kermadec Islands.
From there it is expected to continue to track south and pass close to the northeast of the North Island on Wednesday.
'At this stage, Victor is expected to bring strong winds, rain with some heavy falls and moderate swells to north eastern areas of the North Island from Wednesday through into Thursday,” says meteorologist Ciaran Doolin.
'However, there is still some uncertainty regarding the system's intensity so people are advised to monitor the latest forecasts and any Severe Weather Watches or Warnings that may be issued.
In the South Island, rain in the north is expected to ease on Thursday as the stationary front weakens.
As the working week comes to a close, Cyclone Victor is expected to track south of the east coast of the North Island on Thursday and the rain is forecast to ease as the system moves off.
On Friday a body of warm, moist tropical is expected to produce periods of rain for most central and northern areas of the North Island.
