Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd 4th February
The next couple of days are expected to get hot or rather warm.
I thought I would have a separate topic on this issue, regarding temperatures.
Will it get to 40C?
Could we a have a bet on this? I say Cheviot

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
I'm picking 37C for Chch airport today if it stays sunny (Metservice +2C in a norwester). 22.5C in Lyttelton right now but I'm heading through the tunnel for the day.

26 degrees at Chch Airport as of 710am. Plenty of cloud currently, but yes if sun gets dominant then high 30s very likely!

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
Yes, some are not sited well, Hanmer has tall trees closeby and Waiau is in a school yard. Least the one in our paddock is in the wide open with a good grass cover all round. But then some of the airport sites are suspect too, close to large areas of asphalt.

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
I personally find these types of post posts a bit childish and pointless. Theres plenty of other places in social media where you can **** stir

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
30 degrees here now as of 910am. Plenty of haze/smoke to the west so we may max out about 32 or 33. Otherwise high 30s definitely would had been on the cards.

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
Weather station sites are just a representation of were they are, none are wrong.
Many people live,work,play around riccarton so what's wrong with it, we aren't all standing around in green open feilds so it will be a true representation of what people are feeling temperature wise.

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
So, have you been to NIWA Riccarton? Have you seen the setup? I'm guessing most here have not, and just like to have a moan at NIWA without the full picture.
Anyway I wont comment further. Ive said my piece.
Back on topic, 32 degrees here with NW wind picking up as at 0930. Worrying news of a fire already near Hawarden.

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
33 degrees now with hazy skies. Dread to think how high it'd get if this Haze removes itself. Can't see it going though.

Re: Hot or Warm 2nd 3rd February
^ still seems like a yellowish cast to the light today to me.
Currently 24.8°C indoors: 30.8°C outdoors.
Windows and curtains closed, fan on, may need heat-pump for cooling soon.
