Sunny on the east coast of the North Island today with light winds and mild temperatures, brisk west to southwesterly winds elsewhere with cloudy areas and some sun at times, also the low risk of a shower passing through. Sunny areas will be longer in the Bay of Plenty with west to southwest winds only moderate to brisk. About Wellington and Cook Strait in particular northwesterlies are likely to be strong possibly gusting to gale force at times late afternoon and evening.
Some rain is likely in the west overnight from Taranaki through to Kapiti.
Northwesterlies freshening along the east coast of the South Island, it will be dry and warm with plenty of high cloud. Westerly winds will be quite strong about Southland gale force about the coast with a few showers, late afternoon southwesterlies develop bringing some rain. A few showers may move into Otago later in the evening or overnight with that southwest change. Cloudy weather is likely on the West Coast of the South Island with showers turning to rain in Fiordland by evening.
Nelson is likely to have sunny areas and some cloud with westerly breezes.
16 to 17 degrees again most likely across the North Island today, perhaps 18 about the Bay Of Plenty. On the east coast expect temperatures in the low 20’s however. 13 to 14 for Southland, Central Otago and along the West Coast in the South Island. Temperatures in the high teen’s or low 20’s from the Otago coastline through to Marlborough. A high of 17 expected in Nelson.

Nothing too exciting happening today, out east in both the North and South Island temperatures are warm under the influence of northwesterly winds. South of about Timaru there is a real contrast in temperatures at the moment between there and Christchurch for example due to a southerly flick making it’s way north along the east coast, Timaru is on 13 degrees after hitting temperatures in the low 20’s by late morning. Ashburton is getting it now and it looks like Christchurch may cool down significantly soon as this change moves through.
It may be short lived though returning to the west or northwest after this front passes through, and just a note even though there is a front due in Christchurch it is lacking in moisture and is quite dry so wet weather gear shouldn’t be needed but a jersey would help! Seems a bit of an odd thing to say with the warm temperatures that have been experienced so far today but there you go, that’s the weather for you.
There hasn’t been any large areas of rainfall over the country for the past 24 hours although the thunderstorms that moved through Hawkes Bay, Gisborne and eastern Bay of Plenty yesterday would’ve delivered a few short sharp downpours. The windiest place currently is New Plymouth with 46 km/h winds from the west. The warmest place is Christchurch on 22.3 degrees however that is about to change very soon, I can actually see some wind flags in the south of the city changing to the south now so get that jersey ready!
