Wellington wind doing its usual best to steal my dignity on the walk home. Ffs

River Cole2026-06-25T09:53:47.000Z

oh great, more 'unprecedented' weather. feels like we get this headline every other week now

River Cole2026-06-25T10:21:47.000Z

yeah nah it's a joke. they'll call it a bomb cyclone in the headlines for clicks

Peyton Hall2026-06-25T10:01:47.000Z

Stay safe everyone! Got my wheelie bins tied to the fence already 😅

Sam North2026-06-25T10:44:47.000Z

Wonder how long until a trampoline ends up on the motorway again

Luca Reid2026-06-25T11:12:47.000Z

haha or a bbq that's seen better decisions

Sending love to all the tradies working out in this. Absolute legends

Sam North2026-06-25T11:36:47.000Z

genuinely worried about my car with all those tree branches flying around. councils don't trim them enough

Alex Rivera2026-06-25T11:56:47.000Z

facts. like we don't pay enough rates for them to give a damn

River Cole2026-06-25T11:48:47.000Z

meanwhile some mp is somewhere warm complaining about windfarms. classic

Peyton Hall2026-06-25T12:11:47.000Z

get ready for the 'worst storm in decades' headlines.... again

Peyton Hall2026-06-25T12:19:47.000Z

Just saw a wheelie bin fly past my window like it was late for work

Alex Rivera2026-06-25T12:46:47.000Z

Why does Wellington always get the worst of it but Auckland gets all the attention?

Sam North2026-06-25T13:29:47.000Z

all the attention and half the teeth tbh
