Warning – Expect delays on the Tongariro River road bridge on SH1 which has been restricted to one lane all morning as dead trees alongside are removed.

For Tongariro anglers wondering about the fluctuating flow… The showery winter weather has not proven to be too difficult for TRM anglers.

The flow graph indicates the steep changes are not weather-related but probably the power company fiddling with the plumbing up-river.

The photos taken at about 11 am illustrate the changeable weather and lack of anglers.
