North easterly locally, west Auckland observations showing north westerly. Little convergence zone now appearing on the radar.

low cloud overnight cleared away to a fine but hazy day with light SE winds.
Lots of high to mid range cloud which could become thunderstormic inland the next coupla days if conditions exist.

Up in Arthur's Pass (since Sunday) and not paid much attention to forecasts other than here so it was a surprise to see today's thunderstorm risk. Looks like I might be on the fringes of it driving back to Chch this afternoon. Enjoy the show down south!

Back at Castle Hill after a bike ride between rains . Looking more active over the ranges again to the NW but still just moderate to heavy rain right now.

A nice day here after the gloomy weekend, min 16 max 22C, dp 17C.

Could be thunderstromic in areas west of Oamaru at the moment.
Must be fine there to induce uplifts rather than the booring clagg we have around here.
