Some spring warmth here , 18 -19C currently.

Yep another lovely day, up to 17C here, NE breeze stopping it getting any warmer...

Managed to Stay NorthWesterly all afternoon here in Grey Lynn, up to a max of 19.7C

Cold southerly came through here at 5 to 5pm. Quick drop in temperature of 7C in 45 minutes.
Looked nice though. Shame this didn't happen at the meet the other WE
Anyway, I did an experiment though. I pulled a silly face just before the wind-change, maintaining it through the change from the NW to the south. My face returned it's normal look after the wind had changed, so that saying about if you pull a silly face during a wind-change, your face will stay like that, dosen't work

11mm of rain here overnight was snowing at 2am but didnt settle below 400m.

Wet start to the day out on Banks peninsula with snow lying above about 400m. Not much wind though.

Pretty solid rain here now, up to 4mm

Hmm looking quite unstable out there wind currently NE thunderstorms later on .
I see MS are forecasting them for us but its not on their convective outlook.

I am also a wee bit suss about the air out there this afternoon, i know we are meant to get showers later on.. and when iv looked at the radar there is showers developing in south canterbury..

Finally stopped raining here, 11mm so far. Not as warm as it was yesterday only 11.4C now.

Looking ominous just to the north of TC at the moment but I didn't think anything will come out of it apart from some rain.

We have had hail, graupel and now snow and back to graupel. That air is cold

Shower activity sticking inland at the moment, looking quite dark and ominus but nothing too major to write home about as yet.

Feels like its back to winter here today,weather this time of year too early for daylight saving.

upper air certainly looks very cold above. been some good signs out there this afternoon.

heres 1 picture i took from the hills, will try upload a couple more

It did look quite thundery for awhile with a convergence zone popping up, nothing thundery to note though and the trackers are quiet.
Just a light shower here at the moment and reports of hail not far inland near Mandeville.

Cold afternoon here, 11-12C since midday. Skies clearing nicely now after 10mm rainfall.

couple more for interest this afternoon
