Friday’s national forecast – Northerly airflow begins (+8 maps)

> From the WeatherWatch archives

Mainly settled for New Zealand today thanks to a high pressure system which is centered out to the east of the North Island, a northerly airflow is starting to build over the South Island though.

Dry for most regions today but there is the chance of a shower or two for some in the north, also expect some rain about South Westland. Temperatures popping up into the mid to late teens for some in the east and about the upper North Island.
