water tables have a long way to be being replenished....its just the surface layer that has got wetted up...and not much yet would have soaked down...i would say...
but, yes, I want nice easter weather here with our giant annual easter auction to raise money for the local awhitu school (all welcome)
looks like the weather will be OK next 2 days..although that next weak front could get left behind in the auckland area a bit with some drizzle?

Mild conditions ahead right across NZ with northeasterlies. Wet on Saturday for eastern Northland. Possible afternoon showers for Auckland too on Sat. Rain showers will be slow to ease tomorrow. Someone change the MS forecasts!!
Monday onwards looks wet with showers for northern districts.

Clouded over here.. looks like Taupo has been very windy relatively this morning.

Today, Good Friday,we had a good Friday here with fine weather.
Ne breeze was a bit cool though.
This anticyclone looks set to move out east and intensify.
The following weather systems look set to become stagnant or weakon as they come up against the blocking high out to our east.
Boring cloudy conditions a possibility for Canterbury, dunno for the rest of the country?
