Our NZ weather outlook today covers Lisa Blair who is circumnavigating NZ in a solo nonstop record attempt. We have the latest on her journey back into Auckland after 16 days at sea. For NZ the forecast is a cooler/colder one over the coming week with more southerlies and sou’westers on the way for the final part of May. There will be plenty of southern and coastal showers (especially western NZ), but generally speaking rainfall totals will be down a bit for some regions in the rain shadow and due to high pressure still stuck over SE Australia. We have your New Zealand weekend weather forecast plus the outlook through until Tuesday next week…
