Fletcher Building has claimed adverse weather conditions will likely affect their year-end profits, and Vulcan Steel, and Steel & Tube have reported a reduction in orders due to Cyclone Gabrielle.

Milford Asset Management's Jeremy Hutton says this burst of extreme weather will likely negatively impact the Reserve Bank's decision when it comes to next week's OCR decision.
