Another week of autumn begins – and another repeat performance looks on the cards in many parts of the country for the early part of this week.

We’ll see plenty of sunshine around the country, while cloudy areas and passing showers look likely for many – especially in the South Island.

Main Centres

Auckland

Auckland looks set for another mostly fine day, with sun, cloud and light winds mixing things up – along with a high in the mid 20s.

Wellington

Cloudy and reasonably warm in the capital, with northerly winds keeping temperatures in or around the early 20s for the most part.

Christchurch

Morning cloud clears in the garden city, leaving a mostly sunny day behind, along with easterlies and temperatures in the early 20s.
