Mostly sunny weather can be expected over the North Island with light winds in all areas tending northerly or northwesterly about Wellington and the Kapiti Coast, a chance of morning fog in sheltered inland areas but quickly clearing in the morning. Some cloud along the east coast north of Hawkes Bay with the chance of one or two remaining light showers about Gisborne in the morning. Also about the eastern coastline of Northland and about the Coromandel there may be some cloud with the low risk of a few showers in the morning there. Frosty to start in many areas, high’s climbing up the the mid teens in Northland. Lower double figure high’s elsewhere.

The South Island will receive sunny weather for most places with light winds tending northeasterly along the east coast. A few cloudy areas along the West Coast and some rain in Fiordland however. Sunny periods and some cloud about Southland with northwesterly breezes, some high cloud about Otago and maybe South Canterbury as well. In the evening a few light showers may move into Southland and Otago. Low double figure high’s in most areas perhaps breaking into the teens in Nelson, central Otago a little cooler with high single figure temperatures.
