Re: General December Weather
That sounds very likely. Also some flooding in very Western Hamilton today. Here however have somehow been in the calm between the lines and been untouched, had nearly all day sun.

There would be an impressive flash flood there right now.

Those Southland storms were modelled to pop about 4pm but a cap delayed the development.

Re: Widespread T-storms - Dec 1-5
I can see why the Severe Weather Desk has issued a Mod Risk, rather than High for today for a good portion of the NI.
The Atmosphere is full of moisture, cloud is ensuing, if the sun comes out for a decent amount of time should get quite a few storms today.
