22mm of rain so far since yesterday morning, another 10 would be the ideal as things were drying out

Drove through some heavy showers over SE Auckland yesterday afternoon, they formed on the NW wind change, a couple of photos.

The thunderstorm risk increases over the North Island tomorrow Tuesday with cooling upper levels. Plenty of sunshine tomorrow as well to increase instability.

Have had some sun today, but also some clagg along with a shower at 4.00pm.

Interesting looking isolated storm to the north of Auckland. Just had the severe thunderstorm warning on it via email.

Great shot David! Looks like it is about to ruin my bbq and beer in the sun!

Hopefully slides east so I can watch and listen and not get wet.

Hearing long peals of thunder to our west as well...

Nice lightning Cg observed east of here just now. We have missed the rain here, storm going just easy of us.

A quick 2mm of rain here. Another shot as it approached

Some good thunder and brief rain. Back out to the bbq to enjoy the evening sun..

Watched the storm move in from the top of Mt Roskill, it was a photogenic storm, some photos

A photo of the Cb when it was north of Auckland.

It was probably a lovely fine and sunny day with some high cloud above the grey and 'eggy' day, I mean 'aggy' day here today which covered the region here for today. See Tony's posting on "I SEE"
Overnight rain and rain this evening contributed to 12.7mm .
Light winds from the easterly quarter.
Possibly the same "claggy" weather here tomorrow

Promising looking skies out this morning.

Up over 40mm in the last two days now, soil moisture levels will be back up to 100% again.

I’ve seen some photos on Facebook of hail about 10mm in diameter. Lots of hail accumulations on roadsides too.

Richard · Unread post by **Richard** » Tue 20/12/2022 15:24

Got friends walking the Paparoa Track, looks like they are about to get smashed as well.

Up to 50mm now.

This weekend and Friday looking like storms again for inland areas of both islands

Up north for Christmas so the thunderstorm activity will be in the South Island, probably.
Back in the new year.
Yes a lot of moisture around here in the last couple of days making the flowers in the garden looking droopy.

Hearing some thunder from a cell that's moving down across Rangitoto/Motutapu...

Yeah, there's been some thunder both north and south of me. I'm in the gap
