As we see the end of another large low by this Friday, it will be replaced by a similar sized one by Monday – with windy westerlies for the weekend.

As we head through next week again westerlies will be dominating and increasing later next week.

Temperature-wise and the mild conditions (generally speaking) are continuing in the North Island but a colder southerly on Sunday and Monday will likely affect parts of the South Island.

Later next week, once the westerlies kick in again we’ll likely see mild conditions in the north and east of New Zealand.
