North Island 19 -21 st July - dooozey!

Unread post by C-Nimbus »

looks to be a real pearler on the cards for this time next week. May pay to keep an eye out if your in the BOP/Hawkes Bay region yet again.

Models suggest quite a tight centred low to be present on thursday morning. If it pans out then there could be gale force winds from the SE too which may have the potential to cause damage.

Metvuw has it at about 980Hpa on thurs morning.


crikey :P

This would be the low which is execpted to fire lots of welcome rain to SE and some central parts of Australia.
Although It's a wee way out and models can change looks like the low might colide with a cold front from the south 8) .
But I say no more and hope the models go as they are showing.
Considering this low system we have now has decided to go to sleep. :cry:

looks like this is another NI event, with the low already formed and starting to deepen, heavy rain warning is out from Gisbone to WAIRARAPA.

The Low will be tracking further North this time so Northland ,Coromandel and BOP most likely in the firing line for any heavy rain from Wendsday.


Stunning day here in the South Easterly. :D

Persistent rain in Lower Hutt now. Looks like the worst of this system is going slightly further North than originally thought now.

Cheers

James

PS to Macca. A wisp of drizzle in a decaying Southerly for Saturday evening. Its not looking too bad at the moment.

10,000m would be a high topped thunderstorm for this time of year. Generaly NZ winter thunderstorm tops are around the 7 to 9000m mark. :)

Should have unstable lapse rates over northern NZ tommorrow but a lack of forcing keeps the thunder risk down.
