yea the models have been in agreement for a few days now for this big low over the country monday tuesday. will certainly be something to keep an eye on over the coming days.

I think you should be Foggy Tim not Tornado Tim and Willo should be Lucky Darwin these days

This Fog is amazing!
It makes the grass look so cool with the spiderwebs!

I have the full HD version (1080p) of the picture, makes a really good desktop wallpaper!
So if you want it give me a PM.

Perfect weather here today,clear skies 19C.

looks like eastern areas of NZ will be mostly in the firing line for rain over the next week particularly eastern NorthIsland.

Unusal Wellington has a steady SW (239) there,the wind graph is stuck on it for hours at the island bay station,is it correct as its an unusual direction for them?

Observed the arrival and forming of cirrocumlus with sheared whispy ends overhead at noon today -good fog pics TT.

Storm Struck · Unread post by **Storm Struck** » Wed 19/05/2010 15:32

Light showers on and off all morning here bringing a futher 1mm, although has since stopped.
It certainly is starting to feel like winter now, with the overcast and dreary days this low system sure has produced some reasonable rainfall for much of the country.
If Monday/Tuesdays low system pulls through its going to be worse than the low we have just had.

a few photo's taken earlier of what appeared to me like mackeral skies with whispy short chunky tail at the end - all images taken looking north

Manukau heads obs · Wed 19/05/2010 16:35

doesnt feel like winter up this way, LOL
19C and sunshine today

snowstormwatcher · Unread post by **snowstormwatcher** » Wed 19/05/2010 18:08

Overcast here today high 9 degrees odd patch of drizzle as well in the afternoon.

Manukau heads obs · Wed 19/05/2010 20:20

hey Vertigo,do you think that little spinning low in the central tasman is the same one from 10 days ago that started this all off, re birthed??????

Vertigo · Unread post by **Vertigo** » Wed 19/05/2010 20:54

its possible, i have observed lots of little eddy vorticies in the low system last week, and i think that was just one of them. still, its definitely related to that system, so yea

does anyone have access to a week long satellite loop??

the forecast low for this weekend appears to be taking shape above it - its begun!

Skies last evening looking west.

Fog here this morning! Quite uncommon here, only happens a couple of times per year usually

jamie · Unread post by **jamie** » Thu 20/05/2010 09:10

Stunning picture of the sun set DT.

Fog here too. hard to get used to the early sun sets and late sun rises.

Cheer's jamie

MEAN pic's AWEsome (OT, apologies)

After the talk in the other thread about a sun dog in one of your pics DT-NZ and how I had only seen a couple in Perth, I saw a pearler of one today:

Was hard trying to get the shot right to avoid too much lens flair as you can tell.

I was also treated to a few contrails, all this one needed was an 'N' in front of it and it would have been perfect!

Got a surprising bit of rain here last night, only around 2-3mm but surprising none-the-less as it wasn't expected.

Vertigo · Unread post by **Vertigo** » Thu 20/05/2010 20:50
