10mm here, not quite as much as I was expecting. It was torrential at Auckland university in the central city. Raining here again at the moment

Re: General April Weather
just what the doctor ordered for northland, 50mm
any more and it would have started to run off (with the ground being so dry)
11mm here, which is good enough

Re: Deepening Tasman Low - Apr 26-28
Several people in Whakatane & Opotiki I was talking to today that knew I like chasing storms pointed out they had a spectacular early morning lightning show out to the East from around 3am to 5am.
If only it had done it for us somewhere.
I'm pleased some areas desperate for rain got some though.

Re: Deepening Tasman Low - Apr 26-28
Yea, Im not suprised. The rain band looked pretty tight that morning, even later on.
