Here’s what is making the weather headlines today…..

COLD START IN THE SOUTH

Temperatures this morning for inland parts of the lower South Island are a little cold, while the chart below says there is a frost risk this might be a bit of a stretch. Temperatures may be more around 2 or 3 degrees at their coldest then will progressively lift.

Cold none the less!

WARMEST UPPER NORTH ISLAND

Temperatures today are not all that warm, eastern regions will be in the mid to late teens where as yesterday we had highs in the mid to late twenties!

The upper North Island remains respectable though with afternoon highs in the low twenties.

HEAVY RAIN WEST COAST – SATURDAY

The next lot of heavy rain to move in will be for the West Coast this weekend, Saturday to be more exact.

Rain spreads north on Sunday with a few showers eventually pushing north in the east too.
