The upper North Island will finally see the sun this week (after Monday’s fog burns off!) – with 5 days of southerlies it should mean drier, sunnier, weather for those hit hardest by the floods and gales over the upper North Island recently.

Wettest weather this week looks focused on the North Island’s east coast, while heavy frosts and highs of 5 degrees will great those in Central Otago.

However WeatherWatch.co.nz forecasters are now monitoring a new wet and windy low for northern NZ this weekend.
