Temperatures are relatively cool over most of the country and not surprisingly the Far North is the mildest region.

Dargaville is recording 12 degrees with Gisborne and Taupo the only other 2 centres registering double figures this morning.

Most of the country is in for a dry day and Saturday sport should be going ahead according to schedule apart from a few soggy grounds which may cause disruption from some rain earlier in the week in a few cases.
A few showers are possible in the far north today and any remaining showers in the east of the North Island should dry up.
The only other possible damp scenario is for some showery activity moving into the southwestern corner of the Mainland later today.

Tomorrow appears to be a similar situation with much of the country remaining dry but yet again some showers may dot the far north and the West Coast of the South Island could be unlucky to see some light rain.

Temperatures overall are expected to be near average for early July for much of the weekend with only those sheltered away from any breezes and in the sunshine could see the thermometer rise a little higher than normal.

Overnight and cool to cold conditions are likely with some frosty conditions  in those areas under clear skies and with very little wind.
