Another polar trough to sweep the country late Sunday to Tuesday. The set up does not look very severe for snow or thunderstorms but there will be some activity. Snow level should be 200m in Southland/Otago.

Over the west of the North Island later tomorrow we should have surface dewpoint of 12C and 500mb -23. Enough of a mix there for some lightning.

Even though a NW Arch developed this afternoon, which people regard as a sign of warm weather, temperature didn't rise here much over 6C.

The third major cold blast this winter inbound. Brief blizzard conditions possible over inland Southland/South Otago late Monday early Tuesday.

Looking like a front will come into Auckland area middle of the day tomorrow. DP10C, 500mb -26C, a good mix for thundery hail.

I like the way it was frosty overnight and this morning, then it suddenly went off and becoming quite mild and shot up to 11C by 10am, where it has remained since then. Some overthrow showers moving over from the west but not much wind here but then could be windy Mayfield way for example.

Miserable out there, last night hail in Titirangi at 20.30 hours. Today on our worksite in West Harbour, cold rain mixed with hail sometimes.
Time should be 08.20 on the radar pic. Typo.
