any idea on when this weathers going to ease up on us down south. Its getting bloody hard to keep going. Any sun would be ideal right now. Surely it will even out this summer

Great to know Ray, thanks! We use the worldโs most accurate data via The Weather Company and then add our own local forecasting on top. Weโre always working to make it more accurate too.

I see your forecast for today shows no rain yet Met service show showers turning to rain later. Why such variation in the forecast?

If we were all the same youโd only need one single source of forecasting. We all interpret the data in our own ways, much like how two restaurants side by side can create two different menus by using the same ingredients. Up to you to decide who is consistently more accurate and more to your tastes.
Cheers

Hi Team,
My husband and I love Weather Watch, this is our favourite weather site, we think your forecasts are the most accurate and as we collect rainwater we do a lot of watching! I just have a question about current temperature vs actual temperature, particularly in relation to wind chill, weโve noticed that some other forecasters display both temperatures, do you think this is relevant in forecasting or not essential? Iโm guessing that your displayed temperatures include any adjustments due to wind and other factors? Just curious, thereโs no hurry for an answer and I hope itโs not a silly question! Thank you for the great forecasting and warnings too, weโve needed those in Otago lately!

Hi Nicola, thanks for the kind comment and your questions. If you download our free app, or use RuralWeather.co.nz, click on the Temperature tab under โTrendsโ and you can see both humidex (heat + humidity) and wind chill (temp + wind) alongside the usual forecast temperature. Humidex is especially helpful in summer for humans and livestock management. Windchill is great in winter when it can be windy, cold and damp. These free graphs cover hourly forecasts for all locations in NZ, out for 10 whole days.
Hope you find it helpful!
Kind regards,
Philip Duncan
