Waka Kotahi on snow affecting roads across NZ

It may now be spring but it's snowing across parts of the motu this morning.
State Highway 1 through Desert Road is closed after a dumping of more than 10 centimetres overnight.
It's much the same story for State Highway 5 between Napier and Taupo with slightly less snow, but still enough to cause closures, It's also a sea of white through the streets of Dunedin where drivers are being asked to take care.
Waka Kotahi is advising those around the wintery blast to be extra careful.
National journey manager Helen Harris spoke to Corin Dann.
