Very dry and settled weather for New Zealand on Wednesday, the only place to receive any precipitation is Fiordland with a few showers / drizzle patches in a northwest airflow about the far south.

Conditions are still looking fairly dry for most through till Friday then this coming weekend and early next week a few rain producing systems will move through. Naturally western regions bear the brunt of these incoming systems but some rain or showers should make it eastwards also as the airflow tends more to the south from Monday.
