Re: General September Weather
Looks like a beefy shower with red on radar approaching Hamilton from the NW. Yet the surface wind is a SE, the direct opposite.

Re: General September Weather
YTD rain is now less than 100mm behind average for my station. 2013-2016 all had lower annual totals at this point in the year.

GFS modelling seems to be modelling increasingly stable uneventful weather for the coming ten days over NZ with a few garden variety spring blips on the radar.

Re: General September Weather
Back on line again with a new computer rather than squinting by using my cell phone.

Re: General September Weather
Looking like very little rain here next 10 days. A welcome change but hoping the spring dry hasn't set in already

Just landed back in nelson about 30 minutes ago from christchurch just in time, thunderstorm here with torrential rain and small hail .
I can see on the radar its feeding in from the north colliding with a developing SE.
