It’s a very grey, gloomy, morning across the upper North Island with fog, mist, low cloud and now thicker, higher, cloud moving in.

Light but widespread rain is moving in across Northland and has just moved into the Bay of Islands, with Whangarei expected to see it soon.

Most fog has lifted over Auckland but hazy conditions remain with very low cloud.  Patchy showers or light rain is expected to develop this afternoon and temperatures should rise into the mid to late teens.

Foggy conditions remain in Hamilton for the third morning in a row.  Yesterday parts of Waikato saw fog for almost the entire day.

The sunny weather starts around the central North Island with stunning weather stretching from higher elevations around Rotorua and Taupo over to New Plymouth and southwards.  Taupo itself is currently foggy but conditions should clear to sunny skies before high clouds moves in this afternoon.  It’s cold in Taupo with just 5 degrees as of 9:40am.

Napier has sunny skies with some high cloud while further south Wellington has fairly cloudy skies and 13 degrees.

Nelson and the upper South Island have a stunning morning with mostly blue skies and no wind.

Christchurch has cloudy periods and 9 degrees with a very light sou’wester while Dunedin has just 3 degrees this hour.

Invercargil has 4 degrees.
