The new Autumn pattern is here and it means more changeable weather and finally getting some windier weather too, after what has been a remarkably calm start to 2019.

The warmer than average pattern continues for another few days with torrential rain on the West Coast leading to some impressive rainfall totals.

We also track the remnants of what was Cyclone Trevor, now just a rain maker lying over Queensland. However next week this area of rain looks to move out over the Tasman Sea and combine with a cold front and there is a chance the dry North Island may finally get some relief. Not yet locked in, so today we bring you the outlook.
