The not-so-normal-summer-week continues as we get more of a spring/autumn pattern over the country with temperature fluctuations of over 10 degrees in both islands and surges of wind.

Winds will be westerly quarter for the most part with hot Nor’Westers in some places and much cooler Sou’Westers for others.

A weak cold front moves up the North Island on Thursday and falls apart in the east on Friday. T

he weekend sees another low in the Southern Ocean bringing more wind and rain to some parts of the South Island – but also a surge of not nor’westers for eastern regions.
