After a stormy week, especially in Auckland, Canterbury and a big chunk of the North Island many of you will be pleased to hear that high pressure is rolling in and the weekend is looking mostly sunny and settled for the majority of main centres.

There’ll be a few clouds about the coastal areas and showers will move into the West Coast and perhaps the lower South Island on Sunday, otherwise conditions will be mild, calm and mostly settled.

This is all ahead of the next Tasman Sea low, bringing wind and rain around Monday and Tuesday next week.
