Heavy rain and snow warnings hit the South Island as a major weather system unleashes up to 200mm of rain in high areas and snow on mountain passes. An orange alert covers Grey, Buller, Nelson Lakes through Sunday to Monday, with 25mm/hour downpours expected—risking flash floods and landslides. Avoid low-lying zones and prepare for treacherous roads. Rain watches also cover Westland, Tasman, Canterbury High Country, northern Taranaki, and parts of Wellington/Wairarapa. Snow warnings are active for five passes, including Lindis and Crown Range, where rain may turn to snow this afternoon.
