NZ’s stormy wintry weather carries on this weekend and into the start of next week, but then high pressure from Australia should drift our way, bringing frosts and lighter winds mid to late week.

We cover the snow, gales and temperature drop across NZ this weekend and into next week. We also cover the heavy rain for northern, inland, parts of Australia (QLD and NT and WA) and the showers for southern coastal areas.

*Programming Note —Please note — our next ClimateWatch (monthly outlook) will be out this coming Monday afternoon, covering the month of JULY and how the rest of winter is shaping up … plus the latest on El Nino.
