There looks as though there is a cold southerly outbreak a'coming with some noticable low temperatures in some southern areas of New Zealand, as an intense anticylone establishes itself to the SE of Australia.

10 degrees here at the moment light rain most of the day had a good downpour around 10am lasted less than 5 minutes 8mm of rain so far may see some snow on the ranges once all this clears.

I was down in New Plymouth on Tuesday and in the morning it was really cold. It was an absolute stroke of luck that I had a jersey with me.
