Re: General December Weather
Convection will be suppressed in the Nth Is unless the cold pool moves far enough north on Friday and weekend. Looks like the East South Is only at this stage. Sea temps are warmer than normal around NZ but also significally warmer in the tropics and nearer Australia. With this and the hot OZ land mass us folk in the North are under subsiding stable air unfortunately .Fingers crossed the cold pool will can interact with all the heat and moisture here at present and give us some storms soon.!!!.

Re: General December Weather
A useful 10mm for us over the last 36 hours. By this years standards thats a deluge round here. Enough to help the lawn fertiliser do some work

About the same as here, and then there's possibilities of storms this afternoon too.

Re: General December Weather
Thunder indeed over Amberley, very heavy rain.
Unfortunately I had my headphones on and missed most of it

Re: General December Weather
Cloudy morning with light winds, slowly clearing away from noon but remaining cloudy with some weak Cu forms, peaking through the lower cloud, along the foothills.
Rather hazy for much of the day but becoming fine out to the coast.
Higher cloud Cc and Cs layers later in the afternoon and evening.
Today's maximum was 24C.
Here's a photo i took of a cloudbow from the cirrus layers to the SW later this afternoon.

Re: General December Weather
Cooler sw flows after the weekend for a while, best and only thunder chance will be Sunday for us. Going to be a long wait for rain again after tomorrow.

Re: General December Weather
Steady rain in Chch at the moment, reasonably large drops at that. Looking very interesting on Christmas Day if you go just by the Metservice 3-day rain charts, coastal South Canterbury could get a lot of rain. Chances inland tomorrow as well. Santa will face some turbulence coming and going this year!

Re: General December Weather
Yes. Not looking very warm down here this coming Christmas Day/Boxing Day WE.
Probably, will have the fire going at one stage?
A bit like a northern hemisphere Christmas down here this year?
