Not too bad in the end Some small cumulus popped up just inland NW at about 4pm but fizzled out due to the NE wind. However I noticed a CB to my NE before very farr in the distance on the Horizon perhaps Kaikoura way the pic i took is zoomed in but ohh well atleast got something out of today .
Gonne be on radio NEWS TALK ZB tomorrow morning at 8:15am talking about Thunderstorms what got me interested in weather etc 4 minutes of fame for me on air .

any of you hawkes bay people got web cams to get some piccys up later
some good builds up here on the coast hills already too...so things might just fire up around here too
but checking the webcam,for us here they are drifting up from the SSW...so thats the general flow...so that means too much of a sea breeze will develop for us, so its inland eastern areas again on the cards

neat clouds above me at the moment...with a NE running into a SSWer
the remains of the wek cold front are just off the coast here, rearing its head as a line of CB's, can now see them above the altocumulus
so as that front gets closer, things could get interesting for the auckland area!
update, latest rain radar shows heavy rain with those CB's out west
but its only slolwy moving ENE, so not sure what it will be still like when it finally gets here!

Nice pic spwill, hopefully some good action up north today.
Nice going Jason, listened to the radio and heard you talking, he even said my name again! Horay! lol. I didn't sense any nerves and you did it well I thought.
Yes Steven W, lack of moisture didn't help here yesterday, a Cb did pop up late in the day I'm guessing somewhere between Hamner and Kaikora? but wasn't lightning active unfortunately. Shows there was some potential there however.
I wouldn't be surprised if something popped up again late today, temps are nice (nearly 19) and moisture is a bit higher to but we'll see.
Here's that Cb yesterday I took from Riccarton roof car Park:
Cheers

cb line out the W now fizzling as it gets closer
that waitakere shower comes and goes a bit by the look...
not sure,dont think there will be much action around here today, but the far north looks to be getting big isolated cb's going by the rain radar
edit, and it looks action in the hawkes bay going by the photos ...great looking hawkes bay countryside there
