hey phillip congratulations on getting that award. nice weather yesterday and today after 3 weeks of instability. what about that funnel/tornado in east auckland on saturday huh? keep up the good work guys.

WW Forecast Team on 18/06/2025 8:40pm

Morning Josh, thanks very much! And yeah been some decent instability around the North Island recently โ€“ been great for us as weโ€™re testing new real-time lightning alerts to bring in to NZโ€ฆ we needed those storms to help us confirm accuracy of what weโ€™re building ๐Ÿ™‚ Now we just need another set of thunderstorms in July to confirm!
Cheers
Phil

hey phillip what are the chances of more tornadoes today and tomorrow? there was some spotted touching down in taranaki yesterday with damage reported.

cheers josh.

hi team, it would appear that
Thornbury (IRIVER58)
is reading incorrectly, has been for a couple of weeks so does not look like it will correct itself this time as it has in the past.

WW Forecast Team on 11/06/2025 8:24pm

Thanks Russell, we will look to remove this from displaying.
Cheers

Hi;

Iโ€™m wondering, is there anywhere on your page that โ€˜time stampsโ€™ your current forecasts? By this I mean when the forecast was generated. On some of your competitors websites it clearly states a time, itโ€™s useful for me (or anyone who checks forecasts several times a day) to see how old the forecast is, and if youโ€™re accessing a website several times in a day and you can see clearly on the home page that the most recent forecast is the same as few hours ago then it saves time delving a few clicks deeper only to realise it hasnโ€™t changed from earlier. Cheers,

WW Forecast Team on 10/06/2025 9:06pm

Hi Blake, All our forecasts update each and every hour. This is especially helpful on the day when things are changing locally here in NZ. Hourly updates arenโ€™t so important for forecasts a week out (as they are mostly fuelled by global models which update 2 to 4 times a day).

Hope that helps
โ€“ WW

Got a definite feeling of snow in Dunedin, feels very still tonight, no wind around and very silent. got a good feeling the rain forecast will turn to snow
