hey phil. good to have some rain again for drought zones. the first major rain maker and the media has to go and call it a atmospheric river. I hope just steady rain for Auckland nothing major.

Hey Josh, sadly mainstream media and Niwa are often hyping weather news and being more dramatic. Hereβs hoping the MetService merger with Niwa forces normality back to the Governmentβs weather media releases and interactions with the MSM. If everything is always the most dramatic sounding then it leaves no words when a major event occurs, something WeatherWatch and MetService both aleady understand.

i just checked your auckland forecast and your forecast says showers. but 20mm expected. shouldnt it say rain? or will the showers be heavy? it seems to say rain when only 1mm is expected. but showers when 20mm?

Hi Josh not sure what day youβre talking about but when that happens it means the rain is likely at night. If you look at the rain graphs at RuralWeather.co.nz or under βTrendsβ in our free app you can see the rain setting in heavier at night and then going into Friday.
