Some Auckland residents and businesses are again surveying the damage caused by floodwaters, which rose again in some parts of the region overnight.

Hundreds more are seeking help at the Mangere Emergency Centre today, where a co-ordinator says linens, baby foods, nappies and sanitary products are urgently needed.

There is flooding in several suburbs.

And there are several more slips as well as flooding in Swanson. 

Māni Dunlop heard from RNZ reporter Mohammad Alafeshat who was in the area on Scenic Drive.
