Its previous all time record since records began in 1975 was 33.3C in Jan 2019, followed by 33.1C in Jan 1993.
Make that 36.4C at Whakatane Aero yesterday (along with 33.9C on Sunday).

I'll bet that alleged 40C reading never makes the cut.

Yes that would likely to have be a shade temp and not screened, and besides during fohn wind periods like at the moment the eastern coasts are always going to be warmer than inland areas.

Maxed at 29.7 here about 5pm. Felt really hot for an hour when the wind swung W-NW. Back to NNE by 6pm which has knocked it down to 25.5 as of 7pm.

An unusually warm evening tonight: a quick database query shows that today's 25.9C at 8pm is my highest 8pm temperature in the whole data set. Still 25 outside so the 9pm record of 23.8 will also be beaten.

Along the same lines, Hamilton airport still 23.2 at 10pm that must be close to a record too. From my database I can see my station was was 23.4 at 10pm on Jan 29 2019 the hottest night for ages at the time, likely the airport was a little cooler.
