Just came back in from Timaru.
Southerly not far away judging by the line of scud and black skies in behind it.
Warm here with NW breezes and 25C.

Yes. correct on that. Here in Geraldine it did drom 25C it dropped to 12.7C just after 5pm, when the SW went through.
No low stratus moving through with this southerly change.
Seems like the rain is heading out to sea.

Judging from the photographs from today, the front looked more photogenically spectacular than from the weather events that should of followed it.
Thanks to global warming or climate change, the next few days should be nice and warm and settled following it.
