There’s a lot of moving parts to the weather right now, so let’s just keep this simple with mostly Maps/InfoGraphics explaining the current spring weather set up.

Basically the large low over NZ moves away on Thursday, leaving a few afternoon downpours and isolated thunderstorms inland near the main divide of both islands, then a fairly calm/dry day on Friday.

It’s also warming up further over the coming days – warmer than average again for some (after 3 days of mostly colder than normal).
