Auckland is still feeling the effects of Tuesday night's storm that battered the region with severe winds - with 3000 homes and businesses still without electricity.
Power company Vector says around 3,000 homes are without electricity, down from 180,000 that lost power during the wild-storm.
Vector says they’ll have crews working continually until everyone is connected.
"Continued poor weather, lightning strikes and a number of car versus pole accidents around the city have caused new outages overnight and diverted some of our resources from the storm recovery work," they say in a statement.
"We appreciate this is immensely frustrating but we’re working hard to fix your power and we won’t stop until it’s done."
