The Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management has advised that based on the assessment of the Tsunami activity experienced up to now, we can now cancel the Potential Threat Advisory.

However the public should remain cautious of continuing strong currents for the rest of the day and early evening. Currents may be particularly strong between Hokitika and Karamea.
