Auckland, New Zealand's largest city of 1.6 million people, remained under a state of emergency after it experienced its wettest ever day on Friday, sparking floods which killed three people. Another person remained missing, police said on Sunday.
In nearby Bay of Plenty there was also "widespread flooding", police said, as well as a landslide that had knocked down a house and was threatening neighbouring properties. Air New Zealand said the airline's international flights in and out of Auckland would resume from noon on Sunday .
