【澳纽网编译】随着涨潮和气旋加布里埃尔的袭来,科罗曼德镇怀蒂昂格 (Whitianga) 和库克斯海滩 (Cooks Beach) 的海滨房产正被汹涌的海浪淹没。
民防当局表示,该地区的道路网络“完全受损”。
视频显示,巨浪冲击着靠近海岸的房产,将一些房屋淹没在几英尺深的水中。
该地区的重要道路,包括 Buffalo Beach Rd (SH25),也被淹没或被倒下的树木和倒塌的电线堵塞。
当局警告说,河流水位预计将在晚上 7 点左右达到峰值。
房屋被淹的人已被要求撤离。疏散中心在怀蒂昂格市政厅运作。
泰晤士科罗曼德尔区议会民防事务负责人加里·托勒告诉 Newstalk ZB,气旋“现在开始真正影响我们”,东海岸的情况非常严峻。
“风暴潮是我们的一大担忧。”
托勒说,半岛正遭受多次电力问题和停电,同时他预计随着风暴向该地区靠拢,未来 18 至 20 小时内房屋将受到进一步破坏。
“对于科罗曼德尔来说,这将是一个悲惨、不舒服的夜晚,”他说。“我们现在单膝跪地,这可能是一个很大的打击。”
“It’s going to be a miserable, uncomfortable night for the Coromandel,” he said. “We’re on one knee now, this could be a big blow.”
Towler 说“整个道路网络完全受损”。
“希望每个人都找到安全的地方来渡过难关。”

涨潮前,Whitianga 居民 Poppy Richmond 告诉先驱报,随着海洋开始侵蚀该镇,住在海岸附近的人们“变得非常担心”。
她还描述了道路和海滨的碎片,“到处都是原木”。
Waka Kotahi 新西兰交通局警告道路使用者预计会有更多道路关闭,因为气旋到来造成的滑坡和洪水会危及在科罗曼德尔和东怀卡托的国道上的安全行驶。
“建议道路使用者提前计划,如果必须出行,则应尽早离开以通过 Karangahake 峡谷。 洪水很可能会迫使今天晚些时候通过 Karangahake 峡谷的 2 号国道关闭,”该机构说。
“此外,26 号国道上 Paeroa College 桥一侧的停车闸也可能需要使用,这将导致额外的道路封闭。”
