On Saturday we asked for your thoughts on different weather terms and also your ideas about weather terminology and we’d like to say thanks very much for all of your responses!

There were some consistencies in many replies but also some important differences as well. Some of you added extra comments about personal experiences and that will help us out as well.

Your responses will aid us with the stories and information we provide and if there’s anything to add, feel free to get in touch with us at any stage.

Thanks again for taking part and it’ll help us in providing a more accurate WeatherWatch.co.nz website!
