Mt. Tongariro: Ash on things

By Duncan Wilson

So Mt. Tongariro had a surprise eruption overnight and blew what appears to be a new hole in her side.

Thankfully, there have been no injuries from the eruption, with the worst so far being delays and cancellations to around 20 flights. Major roads close to the site were closed, but have since reopened.

Ash has been reported as far away as Napier, with people in Hamilton reporting being able to smell sulphur.

So, without further ado, here is New Zealand, with ash on things.
