December Weather
December weather so far has been cool but we've had plenty of dry sunny weather here in Auckland so a good month weatherwise to date.
To 6pm wends 13 there's been 123.5 hrs sunshine for the City and rainfall of 21mm ( from the Herald).

We even had to water the garden last night
its a pity too cos it will be next week before we get any decent rain

Re: December Weather
Gosh, you've recorded more sunshine (currently) than us Sydney folk . Seriously its the El Nino pattern isnt it ? Brings cooler but sunnier and drier weather to Auckland.spwill wrote:December weather so far has been cool but we've had plenty of dry sunny weather here in Auckland so a good month weatherwise to date.

Rather green around most of Canterbury at the moment infact I went past a fire danger sign today and it's still on low risk.
I guess with this SW flow it's directing more short bursts of rain occasionally during the weeks but also followed by warm days.
Even Banks Peninnsula is completly green lush hillsides especially more Akaroa side as I visited there on Wednesday.
Cheers

Yes I noticed the large t/cu congestus. Quite punchy clouds along what looked to be a convergence zone. Upper air too warm for thunderstorms though. Just heavy showers.
