Diabetes Wellness (Winter 2023)When the MetService reports that few weather events are as terrifying or as powerful as a tropical cyclone, you take them seriously. Diabetes New Zealand Hawke’s Bay Youth Coordinator Rach McQuade and pilot Bret Lucas share how their heroic work in the Hawke’s Bay aftermath unfolded. As told to Ashlee Sturme and Rowena Fry. It wasn’t labelled a Severe Tropical Cyclone for nothing. In February, Gabrielle devastated the east coast of Aotearoa New Zealand from Northland down to Wairoa. Over the five days, there were 11 fatalities and an estimated 10,000 people displaced, and, since then, insurance claims have passed $1 billion.
