    A major road has flooded in Auckland as wet weather makes its way across the country

    A major road has flooded in Auckland as wet weather makes its way across the country


    Water's filling gutters and running across West End Road in Cox's Bay.

    Video from the scene shows water about half way up cars' tyres.

    Torrential downpours are forecast for the top of the North Island but Auckland, Bay Of plenty, Gisborne and Waikato are also in the firing line.
