Of course I was in... Auckland. Low Cloud, drizzle, thanks btw. Home now, cold clear skies, windy. DAMMIT IT!!!

Last night we walked into the viaduct to see the Lions venue... this was about 2hrs after the London bombings. The place was very empty. My thoughts go out to anyone on this board who is affected by this latest attack
Heaps of debris around the property and on the roads from yesterday's storm. After talking to a few people it sounds like we had a good covering of hail, hills white with a couple of cm's.

Cold today with hail forecast overnight
There is no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.

Heading for a frost if the front doesn't arrive early. Some cloud about Chch, but already down to 1.9C at Jeff's station. Looks like the southerly front will deliver a quick dose of showers before clearing up for a fine afternoon.

Yes there has been a frost in Chch, but now it's clouded over, and (according to 6AM radar) showers aren't far away. Still not much above freezing.

Only a very light frost here overnight (-1.6° minimum) and still a lovely fine day.
