VIDEO: Wintry weather on the cards this week – but also next week too

NZ may have a polar southerly one week from now, but over the next 48 hours severe weather is possible in parts of NZ as a windy, wet, change moves through.
A number of fronts will push into NZ this week, mostly over the next 48 hours then again a weaker front on Friday.
High pressure is parked over the south eastern corner of Australia this week – that high drifts towards NZ this weekend and may well be the main feature helping to dredge up a polar southerly for NZ next Monday and Tuesday. Check your local 10 day WeatherWatch.co.nz or RuralWeather.co.nz forecast to see if the cold change will impact your area.

Hi Nerys, it’s showing a couple hundred views already this morning and the video is set to public. Perhaps turn your device off and on and see if that fixes it – and if not please let us know.
Cheers
