It has struck me as slightly odd that there has hardly been a breath of wind here in Lincoln today. Eerily calm, I guess we are waiting for it to swing to the southerly quarter

Rain rates starting to drop now, with just moderate to light intermittent drizzle.

Hopefully it will stop in the next few hours.

I'm surprised by how high the snowline is around the mountain here this morning, it didn't fall any lower than 1400m.

All this is from previous falls, looking at the photo close up it looks about 1300m

the air mass that has moved into the eastern south island to give this rain has been dragged down and around the low...from the north...
there was a colder air mass that had been dragged up and around a high to the south east...but that must have got pushed out

Still looks mucky in the days ahead. Could be a significant addendum or two to this thread coming up in the next week or so

I'm more thinking about this weekend through to mid next week for the South Island if GFS gets its way
