Cool photos.
Looking at midday soundings, cb tops possible to about 7500m in the north to 8500 about central NZ. The 500mb temp over Auckland is -26C.
Thats very cold, I would say -10 to -15C would be the norm for December. I would say snow to 1000m in the central North Island.
Frequent showers in Auckland city this afternoon.

Just had a nice heavy shower come through first bit of rain since midday been fine all afternoon. Southerly was strong too got some gusts of 45-50kmh. Clear again now with sunshine and not sure when the next shower is coming in.
I heard there was some Thunderstorms along the Plains today and of course the good ones that you guys are experincing in the NI so I hope you guys are having fun since it's been awhile since you have had some decent thunderstorms.
Some nice CB's this afternoon took some pics here's a few of them.
Cheers

Aaron and I went chasing yesterday afternoon/evening after seeing some activity on the tracker down near Mt Peel.
No lightning seen but quite a few good Cbs, lenticularis and 5-10mm hail.
Heavy shower of small hail here as I type this. Squally showers of rain/hail woke me up a few times overnight.
