We have your weekend weather and the forecast right through next week as we transition from subtropical to subantarctic airflows.

The weekend starts off dry for most places but by Sunday a cold front moves in and then clears NZ on Monday morning. Next week is windier, more unsettled and colder as a messy low pressure area moves in and potentially brings some severe winter weather, mostly later in the week.

But it’s not all bad news with the forecast for Wednesday looking excellent in many parts of NZ, including Mystery Creek in Waikato.
