Josh on 17/03/2025 9:45pm

hey phil I am glad you removed the rain icon for today given iobnly 0.9mm are expected however looking at the radar some heavy downpours expected? might get more locally?

josh on 17/03/2025 8:47pm

hi ww is this low pressure zone we got means the high pressure train is slowly starting to break apart?

WW Forecast Team on 19/03/2025 7:57am

Hi Josh, another low like this needs to happen again in the near future, but no major changes expected this month to that high pressure zone.

Thanks for the no nonsense weather reporting and told in layman’s language.
My only go too is Weather Watch.

Richard Leng on 13/03/2025 5:35pm

Well done with all the YouTube views , a very sound and reliable source.

Maureen Drayton on 11/03/2025 6:50pm

Kia ora WW … we haven’t had any temp reading for Whakatane for a while … is there a reason for this ? Thanks

WW Forecast Team on 11/03/2025 8:22pm

Good morning Maureen – we’ve removed the non-reporting weather station from display. This means the next nearest station to you will now display. Let us know if this doesn’t occur today.
Cheers
– WW
