As WeatherWatch predicted yesterday, most of the country had sunny skies with just a few cloudy areas today in some isolated northern and southern regions.

Autumnal temperatures were in full swing again with a crisp morning for many, followed by a very pleasant afternoon.

Tonight should be cool once more with temperatures generally 2-3 degrees below average for early April but tomorrow, a northerly flow pushes a little more over the mainland, lifting the temperatures into the 20’s for central and eastern areas.

The high today was 24 in Kaitaia and the low was 15 in Waiouru.
