New Plymouth: Rain and westerlies,
Hawke's Bay: Fine and warm

and so on

Re: Weather General
With 42mm so far this month we are more than 200mm behind YTD average. Sunshine is 75hrs ahead. After a very poor start this month Ch'ch has some catching up to do on the latter (for Sept).Foggy Hamilton wrote:I guess this is the time the centres soak up their predominant winds and weather,

Yes that well describes today's weather in Chch. The northeasterly seems to be the dominant wind direction here, even when the flow is west or northwest. The much hyped Canterbury norwester may be the dominant spring wind inland, but it usually only affects Chch for brief spells.Christchurch: Dry northeasters

Re: Weather General
A coolish nor'easter in Christchurch tonight and some patchy low cloud. No sign yesterday or this morning of the rain or drizzle that was forecast.
Looks like the temperatures may creep into the low 20's on Friday and Saturday with a nor'wester due...hope so!!
