Heya will the wind die down for February ?

Vlad on 19/01/2025 7:36pm

Probably not. Look at the video filmed on Friday. Answers are there.

Summer from hell on 15/01/2025 8:44pm

The summer from hell continues!!

What do you mean? Up north it’s been sunny and warm everyday. I have only seen rain once so far this year

I guess it depends on your view of good weather, some people love sun and it’s awesome for city dwellers that are connected to town water. However, most rural areas need rain, water tanks get empty & for live stock etc. What the person above might be meaning 😄

Happy ny team ww. It seems that Christchurch and wider Canterbury is stuck in this perpetual cycle of sub 20′ highs. Is there any outlook that points to a return to warmer temps for the region or was summer the first 2 weeks of December lol.

Why are the nights and mornings feeling like winter in Auckland..

WW Forecast Team on 13/01/2025 9:27am

Hi Karl,
This story explains the set up at the moment: https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/content/mid-january-weather-dry-high-pressure-expands-but-heat-isnt-for-all-11-maps

But basically a big low east of NZ, high pressure west and south of us – and that’s pulling in a southerly flow into parts of NZ (even if locally winds are different).
