Re: General December Weather
good thing the front was weak (wind change to SW here)
it should clear this afternoon by the looks of the sat image
as its the local Waiuku Xmas parade this afternoon (and a wedding we are going to , and the bride wanted a forecast like 4 weeks ago...the models back then actually have worked out OK for today!)

Re: General December Weather
In Kurow of all places, been watching that shower you can see on radar bear Oamaru developing while driving down the Waitaki Valley. Tomorrow of interest to coastal Otago and South Canterbury by the looks.

Re: General December Weather
But gutted about timing of this next system, we have won free tickets to the Auckland v Canterbury cricket match on Tuesday, my wee lad is really looking forward to it. Ah well

Re: General December Weather
A front hanging around Auckland overnight, it may trigger an isolated thunderstorm or two. But more probable tomorrow afternoon if we get the heating.

Re: General December Weather
Port Hills are draining fast now, a good barometer of how dry it's getting in Chch. I heard there was a fire at West Melton in the past couple of days or so?

Re: General December Weather
Yet, no watches or warnings for Waikato or King Country, suspect that line is going to hit somewhere even if the models get its position wrong by a few 10s of km.

Re: General December Weather
Model fail, 2mm or so from a shower and that was it. Maybe MS knew not to take that model output seriously.cbm wrote:Yet, no watches or warnings for Waikato or King Country, suspect that line is going to hit somewhere even if the models get its position wrong by a few 10s of km.

Re: General December Weather
I like the way it is in the 40's over there in Australia, whereas here in Geraldine, we have the fire going because it is cold outside
10c at the moment.
No more rain but it is rather overcast with grey skies.
Hardly any wind.

Re: General December Weather
Be great if what GFS is showing a week out holds up, slow moving spit high pressure each side of NZ, this would help develop surface troughs over inland areas. The prefect set up for my area if it happens.

Re: General December Weather
Its just model output but we may get another round of 30C temperatures in before the end of the month. Early Jan could be hot.
Dec 31st 850mb temps.

Re: General December Weather
Cropp MTD total as at 07.12 today is 2149mm (not double-checked). Record monthly of 2927 probably safe.
