	Description:		An unprecedented weather event has completely saturated the upper North Island over the last few days. Record-breaking amounts of rain have submerged streets and parks, caused landslides and damaged infrastructure, and claimed the lives of at least four people. The event has also sparked a backlash from Aucklanders over how Mayor Wayne Brown and public officials handled their communications. Damien speaks to NZ Herald science reporter Jamie Morton about the stats behind the storm, and to NZ Herald deputy editor Hamish Fletcher about what the newsroom saw on Friday night.
