The very weak thunderstorm set up later today over the North Island maybe worth a mention.
A weak easterly surge creating some convergence over the inland North island with a few showers. GFS suggests a few rumbles over the hills north of Taupo.

Lusi has left some humidity in Christchurch today. We keep some of that tropical moisture in the NZ region for the rest of the week especially in the north, this will give our weather a warm feel this week.

Are you reporting from Raglan permanently now? If so you'll have to set up a weather station there ;)

It was a lovely day here too - there was thick cloud to start the day but it burned off quickly.

I think atleast isolated thunderstorms over northern regions this weekend. There will be an upper trough over the area.

Yea... in Raglan now. For the foreseeable future anyway. I work for MetOcean Solutions which is based in Raglan and New Plymouth. Meeting heaps of like minded people, and having a complete blast. Technical Meteorological and Oceanographic conversation here is very normal, which makes a very refreshing change, haha.
I'm literally living a Weather Enthusiasts dream, might sound a bit pie in the sky, but it's true.
