I suppose I better put the updated NZTS Thunderstorm Potential Code so people won't get confused ...or whatever
NZTS Thunderstorm Potential code
The colour coded level of alertness is a follows:
Blue not likely but the potential is there Indigo quite probable Violet quite on the cards Orange yes looks likely Red ....well you know what that means ?
I have amended tomorrow to be a 3 - quite on the cards at the moment. but things could change depending on circumstsnces which at the moment do look likely?
Next weeks predictions may have to amended as well

Crikey, what are you smoking John? I only put "risk of showers" in the forecast...
Full credit, well done John a good call. Whatever you are smoking I want some!
Thanks.
Well, I'm smoking for a possible 3 on Monday and a 3 for one day next week, I'm not too sure at the moment
don't forget, I still have a 4 for tomorrow, this depends on cloud clearance
John I thought a (1) which you mentioned for tomora meant a very low chance of TS happening according to your scale on page one but what u r saying is probly a 4 or a 5 correct me if iam wrong on that but the number you put up on potenial code is a 1 and thats vewry low risk.?
I could be wrong.
Not that it's a problem either just thought id point it out.

Hi Jason.
I think that because of cloud cover TS risk is quite low ...but if a thunderstorm does happen tomorrow, it does.
I never had a thunderstorm warning for today, despite MetService's high risk in their Severe/Potential Thunderstorm Outlook. I thought that the situ was not the right one for TS development despite the unstablness of the atmosphere. Too cloudy.
