MetService has issued a severe thunderstorm watch until 10pm.
It covers a large area from southern Waikato and eastern Waitomo - to Taumarunui, Taupo and southwest of Rotorua.
Metereologist John Law says heavy showers could change into a storm quickly.
He says the thunderstorms will be slow moving which brings a risk of localised heavy rain.
