Updated 1pm — WeatherWatch.co.nz is proud to be a CNN Weather affiliate, sharing content and exclusive information whenever possible as storms and other natural events affect and shape the South West Pacific.

This morning we spoke to the CNN Severe Weather Team based in Atlanta, Georgia to get their feeling for where Donna would track and to help better explain the path via their graphics to those in New Caledonia and New Zealand. For them, this is another day at work tracking the world’s biggest storms on a daily basis.

CNN is providing regular updates here in New Zealand on the SKY-TV network (Channel 87) and you can also find them at CNN.com.
