Heavy weather hit Auckland to begin the weekend, as the Prime Minister heads to the UK then Gallipoli for Anzac Day.
The search is ongoing for a man who went missing in water near Wairere Falls, northeast of Matamata, this morning.
A person walking the Wairere Falls Track saw a man falling into the fast-moving river about 11.50am.
Despite their efforts, they were unable to reach him.
