The North Island has seen more bad weather overnight with up to 79mm of rain in some places.

Metservice says it's not over yet with possible thunderstorms, downpours and strong winds expected throughout the day, especially in Auckland and as far south as Hamilton.

Some places in Auckland are still without power following Tuesday's wild weather and the city has been hit again with emergency services receiving 20 weather-related calls in an hour due to heavy rain. 

Weather warnings are still currently in place for Auckland, Coromandel Peninsula, Waikato and western Bay of Plenty.

NIWA modelling predicts that most of the heavy rain will fall to the south of Auckland and north of Hamilton.
