Weatherzone NZ Radar Data Upgrade

Unread post by Tornado Tim »

Since M/S has released 7.5 min updates it seems Weatherzone NZ has got 7.5 min scans too now.

They haven't updated the Radar looper yet, but if your in Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch or Invercargill and don't like the colour scheme of the echoes you can use that site instead :)

Hopefully the Mahia, BOP/Waikato, Westland Radar will be added soon.....

Weatherzone is becoming more NZ user friendly now which is good to see.

All of the links at the moment seem to be landing on the Auckland radar page.

Can you possible add the taranaki/wanganui region to your radar selection?
