There is a big high moving onto NZ , well mostly north and central areas of the country so there will be settled weather for much of the North Island, except for Auckland where they will get severe SW gales 8)

I will try to attach todays map

looks like plenty of fine weather for rest of this week, then I reckon early next week we will get another system moving in from the SW
