I'm not in any rush to find work

You still planning on spending a build up & wet season in Darwin?

Funny plume off mt egmont/taranaki blown to the west todays satellite chart.

[NZstorm]

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.

[Storm Struck]

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.

[NZ Thunderstorm Soc]

Nice but weak convergence cloud moving across from the NE at 4pm, with a NE change following.
Been light southerly here all day.

[mikestormchaser]

Yeah seen that all day John definate convergance over the port hills i could see this morning and it moved over rolleston/ west melton way and way out inland to from about 4pm.
Shame no cold upper air was there to trigger anything happening.

cheers

Interesting that plume.
I liked the stripes in that satellite pic.
Reminded me of those stripey sugar cane things you used to get in your Christmas stocking

Hmm Saturday could be a chase day given the last model runs, will be fun if does eventuate with the CWW meet! Also Wed and Thursday have potential this week.

Don't say that Steve.
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.

[Richard]

The ones that buggered off was the chase in the end worth missing out on cheese toasties John.

Pleasant day here today with a high of 17deg,large burn off near Hanmer Springs throw up a huge cloud

It wasn't much anyway, the cheese toasties were much better.
Will make some for Sat's meet

[mikestormchaser]

I honestly think we should all convoi chase if that is the case sat.
What do you guys think? wait and see on the day though see how it pans out but im sure we can get the wise men out, bob crowder and john in the cars!! might even be lucky to be in the CTIV

[Richard]

Mind you i cant see Saturday been any good for storms anyway,Sunday or Monday look better

[NZstorm]

Nice fine morning in Auckland, looks like the rain has been put back a couple of days in the models!

Surprised to see the blue sky when I woke up, couldn't let the opportunity for a brisk morning walk slide - really lovely

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

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.

[Dean.]

21 degrees...beaut day

[Richard]

Yes same temp as here,lovely day alright

[snowstormwatcher]

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.

[NZstorm]

I notice the UKmet has 14-15C dps over the north including Auckland on Friday while the GFS takes the moisture away with just 10-11C dps.
