Latest news on #Southland #Flooding #CivilDefenceEmergency :
* #Otautau bridge is closed - is being sandbagged to keep the town as dry as possible
* #Tuatapere has 8 hours of water left so only use what you absolutely have to.

As always remember that flood water is toilet water so DON'T go out and play in it.
