rain band approaching here...
yes, will have to wait for this rain band to move through and see if it clears up and get some good heating going this afternoon
the 10cm soil temperature is up around 17C now
i.e so ground temperature can heat up quickly once the sun is out

This current weather is not all that favourable. We are getting frequent skiffy showers passing through that is putting a lid on the heating.

Yes, heard that! We're normally quite acoustically insulated in our Takapuna building, but it's coming through loud and clear. There it goes again.

Finally a proper clear slot coming in from the east, I hope it isnt too late!
A medium sized cap would be beneficial today, stop the straggly showers from popping up.

It is bucketting down with heavy rain, no more thunder.
Looks like Hawkes Bay, Napier will have some good action.
