I have a theory. It will or will not rain.

Jet on 23/12/2025 2:43am

Hi Phill When are you gonna do a cilmate outlook for January?

WW Forecast Team on 23/12/2025 10:57pm

Hi Jet, we’ll have a long range outlook on New Year’s Eve, but not the usual ClimateWatch update, that returns on January 31st.
Cheers
– WW

Hey Phillip thanks very much for the last 6-7 years I’ve followed you and watch your videos every post!! As its YouTube could you upload a bloopers compilation?? This would be quite a laugh! Cheers.

WW Forecast Team on 23/12/2025 12:40am

Hi Mike, thanks very much for the ongoing support – it’s very much appreciated! Might do a bloopers real at some point – but mostly it’s me screwing up the first 15 seconds and then a few bleeps. 😀
Cheers and have a great Christmas/Summer

Hey Phil thanks for the excellent forecasts. I’ve been getting an error 500 since yesterday for Hamilton and Tauranga forecasts.

WW Forecast Team on 23/12/2025 12:40am

Hi Kat, thanks for that 🙂 Are you still getting that 500 error? We made some backend changes over the weekend which more than likely caused that.
Cheers
Phil
