Wind has freshened and cloud is approaching from the south-east.

Thunder here in Timaru, very heavy rain.

should be few showers in timaru nzstorm going by radar now. that wee band moving north actually is breaking up abit with some heavy showers moving up

EDIT: thought something maybe happening down there yeah.. hmm good heating here in rolleston, no cloud cover and a light SW breeze.. wonder if something is going to fire up further north

Still a NW wind here but building to the south,there's a cloud convergence line between the NW and SW wind to my south.

Brewing up nicely around here to the west and north and almost overhead too, fresh breezy NE wind.
Be nice to get a thunderstorm on xmas day

26 degrees currently, wind from the SW at 6km/h. High cloud increasing.

Theres a nice steady shower to the west from here lining us up, looks to be developing nicely might be some thunder soon

Only brief rain here earlier this morning, high cloudiness on the way out, current 20C dewpoint 16C, still the risk of a shower here this afternoon.

Winds just changed to the SE

Brief thunderstorm inland near Oxford earlier on, has since turned into a steady shower and raining here now.
Wind is light from the NE still.

heavy heavy rain here in rolleston, just heard a clap of thunder, BOOOM!

No thunder here but heavy rain though

Had heavy rain for last 2 hours, more moderate now. 11mm so far.

Well, Christmas weather today worked out well in the end. The rain held off till mid afternoon and we reached a high of 27. 20mm of rain has fallen since the rain began, mainly light stuff now. Great for the gardens!

19mm here up till 9.00,getting a heavy shower ATM

A pleasant xmas day here, albeit with a relatively cool max of 20.9C (in contrast to Grey Lynn's 23.1C), 6mm from the mid morn weak front, the odd bit of drizzle during the day, but also some sunshine with light to moderate westerlies. In other words, a fairly typical xmas day...

We got a dry afternoon here
