A calm day in this neck of the woods today,thought the NW would have come through by now,cant it be far away as the mountains are now looking Chrystal clear instead of the slight hazy thats been hanging around for most of the day,started the day on 0.3C and reached 20.5deg.

I see Culverden stayed under the fog till at least 2.00 looking at the temps there,it happens a few times a year where the fog can hang round all day over the town.

Noticed, as I travelled home from Ashburton yesterday, how very hazy the foothills appeared: nearly obscured.
Fog near Westerfield reported to me this morning.
Currently: temp. 10.7 degrees & dropping; 65% humidity. Faintly misty at 1km.

The pattern is certainly dead at the moment but maybe something interesting will reach us here in the north on Sunday, still 4 days out for model changes.

Another nice day up to 19C not long ago with a breezy westerly now down to 18C with an onshore NE, a few weak CU clouds popped up this afternoon inland to the Peninnsula usual areas.
Just after 10pm last night there was a brief dollop of quite steady rain for about 5 minutes, measured 2mm in the gauge just before.
Very messy looking weekend and week ahead with fronts and troughs all over the show, Might be some good thunder risks too Thursday although a wee way out is something to keep an eye on.

16 degrees currently with overcast skies today and a Northerly breeze that has picked up in the last hour. No sun today as yet but if we see it should get to around 20. Have the irrigation going because everything is so dry. Richard, your right in an earlier comment about the whole snow - rain ratio this winter. It really is remarkable in the fact that we have almost had more snow than rain! Very dry winter indeed.

After a day of thick high cloud the sun has now come out and the mod NE wind has gone light,currently 16.4deg.

I'm liking the look of the forecast for the next few days because if it doesn't rain in the next week or so i'm guna have to kick the irrigation system in to gear.
