Looks like rain comes in later Tuesday for northern areas and persists through Wednesday.
Looking quite moist in the far north with dps 15C so some heavy thundery falls on the cards there.

Another stunner day out there, and i am surprised to see CU towering away inland along the ranges so early in the season.
Might be a few evening showers up that way but if it was summer would definatly be isolated storms.

Don't say that Steve. [-X
I remember having a MetSoc meeting at our house in ChCh in the 1990s, when lightning was observed to the south and half of the people who came, buggered off, leaving Andrea and I, and a few that didn't take off, too eat all the cheese on toast that we had made. :smile:

Yea I think that might have been a rogue model run showing saturday :p

Still a possiblity for Wednesday / Thursday. Will be interesting if Metservice think there is a risk. Sunday or Monday as you say look better but it is along way out still.

High of 20 degrees here. Very nice day with a light NE wind. Should be a milder night as well with 16 degrees now and high cloud cover.
