April's summary is available here:
http://www.hbweather.8m.com/custom2.html (http://www.hbweather.8m.com/custom2.html)
The big news for the month was that we got a little over our normal rainfall - for the first time since August last year! Otherwise, the month was slightly warmer than normal, but other values were pretty much right on average.
The Hawkes Bay drought goes on, however, with severe soil moisture deficits... :(
