A tornado has ripped through New Zealand's North Island on Wednesday tearing roofs from houses and causing chaos on the roads.

Fire and Emergency New Zealand confirmed at least 20 homes had been damaged, with two being declared uninhabitable by a Far North District Council building inspector.

Families were forced to make temporary living arrangements and security guards were posted at their homes until they could be made secure.

Another 'mini tornado' also hit the community of Kaiwaka, about 100km north of Auckland.

'I just saw this big tree go across the road in front of me. It was literally a flying tree that landed in the middle of the road,' truck driver Craig told the NZ Herald.

Air New Zealand is warning travellers to check flights to and from the North Island in case of delays due to the wild weather.

Auckland Transport also warned that disruptions to public transport, particularly ferry services, may cause delays for commuters.

Weather forecasts indicate more thunderstorms could roll through in the region in the next few days bringing with it wind gusts of up to 110km/h and heavy rain.
