Well….I had a read of the education link WW posted below and it was most informative and re-educating.
As a weather geek, sometimes things like this need to be read again and again. There was even some (dry) humour in it and that doubled the β€œRead Me” factor.

Thanks WW Team!! And keep up your amazing work.

As usual, your weather forecast is completely wrong. But you are not alone. Every other site I look at is also wrong. Talk about money for nothing. Just get into the forecasting game.

Read this – it’s extremely helpful at learning how to find more accuracy: https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/content/education-the-most-accurate-ways-to-read-a-rain-forecast-get-fewer-false-alarms

Hi Jet, take a look at the satellite map – at the end you can see a clear line moving into Nelson. https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/maps-radars/observations/satellite

Josh, Latest news from ENSO blog says La Nina has ended. Neutral conditions predicted.https://www.climate.gov/news-features/blogs/enso.
My opinion (WW will correct me if I’m wrong) is the Tasman Sea, Coral Sea and Western Pacific Ocean are very warm atm https://www.ospo.noaa.gov/products/ocean/sst/anomaly/ . Seas with very warm temperature anomalies increases the chances of breeding depressions. I think we are experiencing one of these events atm.
