Kaikoura only got to 7C today. Sure they get some hot days in summer, and occasional balmy 20C+ highs in winter, but it's fully exposed to icy southerlies and damp, cold easterlies. I often see single figure maximums for that place on TV1 weather.

I was thinking once of having the letter A in Auckland replaced for the letter F, but that didn't go down very well in some circles, especially when it came to games of rugby between Auckland and Canterbury!
