UPDATED, 9:20am Friday
Auckland’s Big Day Out is upon us and this year the weather may play a slightly bigger part than previous years…but only slightly.

A small area of low pressure is likely to form over the Auckland/northern NZ region – that means the sky becomes a little more unpredictable and the chance of showers increases.

Forecast for Friday in Auckland:
– Fairly Cloudyat times but mostly dry with a chance of a shower (about 40% confidence) this afternoon or evening..
– Southerly winds picking up and turning sou’east and strengthening further in the afternoon or evening.
– High of around 25 but could feel more like the low 30s at the stadium.  Drink plenty of water!
– Temperature in the evening will be around 17…would pay to take a jersey or coat if you feel the cold easily.
