Pretty sure somewhere in New Zealand (may be Christchurch) had something like 175mm of rain in 24 hours!

That's about right, yes.  Last Monday into Tuesday produced severe flooding across large parts of the city from a deep and static Pacific low:

We has a supercell the other week and have ex-TC Lusi on the way at the weekend too.  Before all this we had 12mm of rain in the first 40 days of the year so our rain is coming in very big bursts at present!
