spwill, yea, heavy showers inbound auckland from the coromandel. cant see any thunder in them at this stage, and the sounding isnt very favourable.

Cold and wet for Auckland this morning, 9.6Â°C here with about 15mm since it started last night.

Next Fri/Sat is something to watch in the models...low pressures, very low 500hpa temps and low LI's....

Yes, steady rain since 9pm here - 16mm so far. The front from this low seems to have honed-in on the Auckland region - 10mm at Grey Lynn since 10pm and on the Coromandel, 40mm at 'Castle Rock' from 8pm to 3am (no reading from the Pinnacles since Mar 18?).

Yes, the local market, most of which is outside, is a big thing here on Saturday mornings - lost count of the amount of times it gets washed-out.

Clear skies and a low of 8.0Â°C here at 7:15am, after a total of 26mm.

I see there were 2 separate boating fatalities on Saturday.

The trimaran that ran aground off Taranga Island near Whangarei seems to have been a tragic accident. However, the 2 fisherman in the capsized dinghy near Maraetai in the E Akld region appears to have been the result shear stupidity...
