It’s been six weeks(!) since the shortest day of the year, and as such, New Zealand days should be drawing out, as we approach the official start of spring.

Winter has had something of an uncomfortable sting in its tail this year, however, and the last couple of weeks have seen some fairly cold, windy or unpleasant conditions in parts of both islands.

So we wanted to know whether our readers are noting the longer days – or if you’ve simply been too preoccupied with the rough weather to notice!

Let us know in this week’s poll below, and tell us where you’re from in the comments section!
