Blowing like anything here in Paekok, a strong SW with ESE gusts UGH. Gusting stronger than Wellington and Paraparaumu even.  No rain and pressure keeps going up. These anticyclones suck to the maximum. I so hope we don’t get them like this in winter as they give us bone chillingly cold wind and drainage then, especially an SE one. 🙁
