Tonight, on The Panel, Wallace Chapman is joined by panellists Mark Knoff-Thomas and Zoe George. First up, Cyclone Vaianu was the sixth big weather bomb so far this year, by RNZ's count. But was this one a fizzer? Wairoa Mayor Craig Little tells Wallace the response was overly panicked, before disaster risk expert Tom Robinson shares his thoughts. Then, a new IPSOS study found New Zealanders have a higher reliance than the USA. Transport expert Simon Kingham breaks down the results.
