General November Weather

[David]

Warmest of the month here so far today with 25.0C

[Awhituobs]

overland heating must have been the key
only 21.4c max here

[NZ Thunderstorm Soc]

A rather chilly NW wind today. I see it’s been snowing at Mt Hutt most of the day.

Yes, there was a cool NW wind flow over the region today, even though it got up to 19.3C here today, sheltered from the wind.
Basically a blue dome day here, well looking east, but a rainband along the Alps from the squally weather they had over there today.
A coupla of overthrow showers this afternoon.
Should be some massive thunderstorms here tomorrow on the southerly change? '
....or just a few spits of drizzle?

I’m hoping for the ‘massive thunderstorms’ option but am well aware that Metservice have been overcooking their TS forecasts recently for Canterbury.

Today's risk is low. And I think only up to about timaru where a late heavy shower/ thunder is possible.
Conditions just haven't looked juicy yet for a decent day to be excited about.

[darcyplumb]

As expected, MS have reduced their TS risk considerably for Canterbury.

[Richard]

What snow fall to about 900m last night and yesterday is disappearing fast.

The drizzle option doesn't look likely at the moment despite the massive thunderstorm option, for today.
Sky rather flat and overcast down here with hardly any wind.

Quite warm and scattered cloud up the road in Ashburton but it’s not giving me that juicy feeling.

Cloudy mild day with a light westerly here turning light Light SE this afternoon or calm.

[NZ Thunderstorm Soc]

A mainly cloudy and mild day with light winds, from the west to the SE.
Today's maximum temperature was 20.8C when thee sun came out just after noon.

[Awhituobs]

running at +1.4c above normal for november so far here
and with a warm week coming up for here, this could end up being one of the hottest Novembers on record for Waikato and Auckland?

[Richard]

Thunder to the west, not overly active but at least its something

[Richard]

Ended up being a reasonable storm, quite a bit of thunder to the west/north. 6mm here but 2km to the west saw surface flooding.

[NZ Thunderstorm Soc]

Today's weather conditions would of better today than yesterday with some unstable but weak Cu forms around with converging winds.
Fine day with scattered cloud with NE freshening this afternoon.
Today's maximum was 20.3C.

[Awhituobs]

Totally fine down here today. hope the cloud stays away.

[Awhituobs]

[NZ Thunderstorm Soc]

Sadly thickening high cloud now moving in from the WSW.

Fine day here with light NE turning NW this afternoon.
Today's maximum was 25.1C.
Some high cloud moving across from the west late afternoon and evening hindering the viewing of the eclipse.
Here's a blurred photo I took not long after moonrise.

An early start to Summer this year? feels that way in Auckland.
