Check out some pictures sent into us from a farm on Riverside Road, in Gisborne – taken the morning of some rare and heavy snow in the North Island.
Locals have told WeatherWatch.co.nz this week that localised snowfall up the east coast of the North Island has been the heaviest and lowest in 30 to 60 years.
Check out the photos below and keep them coming in – we’ll do our best to show them all off!

Can people confirm that is snowed in Gisborne city itself? I mean real snow, not the Auckland pretend snow. I have read different things. Also I get confused when people who should know better claimed snow on the ground to near sea level on Waiheke Island! It does appeaer that what hit the East Coast was pretty rare however.
