The search for missing Waihi man Grant Ridley continues today.

The 46-year-old has not been seen since October 14 and the search for him had been scaled back.

A Police spokeswoman said the search had been reviewed again yesterday and teams would be returning today.

"A dog team and three land SAR teams will be searching the farm areas and surrounds during daylight," she said.

Mr Ridley is 170cm and has brown hair styled into a mullet.
