Re: General April Weather
Might need to water the garden - only 15mm rain in the last 3 weeks and dry weather is expected for another week. And, it looks like our night time lows start dipping under 10 from tonight.

Re: General April Weather
Cooler temps in the north, with Taumarunui down to -2C this morn.
8.1C here at 7am with a light SSE'er. Grey Lynn on 7.7C at 4am.
Possibly Akld's coldest morn so far this year with temps less than 9C at Ak Aero, 6C at Whenuapai and Ardmore - Whangaparoa Peninsular the odd one out on 13C.

Re: General April Weather
Still no sign of a frost this year in ChCh. 3.1 dgrees is the lowest I've had at home for 2012 on March 26
Looking at long range we may even get through April without one, early days though

Re: General April Weather
So has my station,1037.22 hPa, niceDavid wrote:Broke my record high pressure this morning, currently 1035.8 hPa.
The record could break again soon in a few hours as the high merges a bit more north.

Re: General April Weather
Overnight low of 11.2C here at 2:35am. Bit of cloud around.
Akld generally looks like it was warmer than Thurs morn, although I see Ak Aero was again down to 8C, Whenuapai to 6C and I think maybe even 5C for Ardmore. Whangaparoa closer to 15C.
On another note, I see MS show Akld Aero on 22C between noon and 3pm yesterday? I suspect that should be about 20C (as per their TV-temps). Will check later.

Re: General April Weather
I see Auckland Airport has had only 4 days with a maximum temperature below 20C in the last 30 days and no days with the maximum below 19C. Only 1 day with a minimum temperature below 10C there.
