Today was shaping up to be another warm one in Chch. Yes it was warm this morning, but then, I believe, a sneaky southerly (or southeasterly according to TV1 Weather) arrived sometime about midday. No related change in the weather (northwest arch high cloud), but the temperature dropped significantly. And the forecast is still for warm conditions through tomorrow. I wish.
MetService's severe weather warning of severe gales was for areas between inland Canterbury and Hawkes Bay, not for Motueka and Golden Bay, which seemed to get the worst of them in reality.
