some of the CB's look pretty good around the area today
but low dew point means high base,and as you say nzstorm, not getting to a great height, so not alot of depth in them
14oC here now,but it had been down to 10oC overnight,.....on the 1st day of summer (although some say summer does not start until the longest day)

After the heavy rain and showers here in Taupo yesterday.. it's a beautiful day here.. a weak Cb formed over Tongariro earlier but decapitated pretty quickly.. convection starting to boom over the Kaimanawa Ranges at the mo'.. with even a low topped Cb developing now.

had a report of hail that covered the ground late this morning, only 2km's north of me here....we got heavy rain, but no hail...but it was very black looking to the north of us
Been a rather cold start to summer but oh well a relativly fine wekend ahead .
Was a nice Weak CU line that went up from SE to N-NW this evening not quite sure why this hapend could have been NE further north along the coast as it was light southerly here at the time.
Still was an interesting sight against the sunset.
Cheers

help, admin, michael has stolen my login in details, please delete the above post!
Looks like sunny conditions over most of the NI.. wonderful day here with some high cloud and 13C.. it sure does take a while for the westerly to die right down here at night! brr
This front may have got more convective as it travelled North up the east coast, 24mm at my place. Farmers well be pleased and so is the water tank. Didnot expect this sort of total.
Looks to be a low risk of thunder this afternoon/evening thru eastern Waikato.. probably wont come to much, 17/12 at the moment here so that's a good start
