We don’t have our regular video today but we do have extra maps to help paint the picture of the upcoming week of weather.

Basically the weather this week is a bit messy – with warm sub-tropical flows for a time, then a cooler change moves in (very much late spring weather).

Colder air heads up the country on Tuesday night and southern parts of the South Island wake up cold on Wednesday – but milder air then returns until Saturday.

It’s not a very stormy week – but it’s not perfectly settled either.

*Our video returns tomorrow, apology for no video today.
