Quite a few Lightning strikes showing up near and along the Kaipara Coast with a line of showers moving in now.

Heard a little thunder as the band of rain moved closer, but the airforce started doing something and couldn't hear much more. Seemed to fizzle out quickly when the rain arrived Didn't actually see any lightning. Hopefully there's something else to come later today.

Nice shot there Steven, looks very chilly up top today.
I see some more cirrus presumably in the form of an anvil heading our way now....

I get annoyed at pictures like that
What's there up there to make thunderous skies when there is bugger all land mass?

auckland is a maritime climate mostly
and so in the winter we get maritime CB's coming over us from the Tasman sea
was at a working bee at school all day today
watched a great looking CB pass just to the south of today
also there was an active small cell just off the coast here this morning
at one stage today i could see this sudden heavy rain coming...I yelled at all the kids to quick run inside its going to rain!...they just stared at me as if I was bonkers...as it was not raining....but 3 seconds later huge big drops of rain ....great when it suddenly starts like that

Certainly strange mix of skies today with the blue patches visible. Cooler tonight and still patchy rain. No TS though...
Winds have been NNW all day.
