A showery Saturday is expected for many Kiwis today.

The very stubborn and slow-moving Tasman low will continue to keep our weather unsettled today.  Auckland, Hamilton, and Dunedin are all looking at showers today.  Wellington and Christchurch will also see some precipitation, although the chances in these two centres are better during the morning and evening hours.  Both centres could see an extended break in the rain this afternoon.

Heavy rain warnings remain in effect for Gisborne and Hawkes Bay.  Government forecaster MetService says peak intensities of 10-15mm/hr are possible before the heavy rain eases late this morning or early this afternoon.
