The late surge of spring weather means the south west of New Zealand is most exposed to heavy rain in the days ahead.

For Fiordland and South Westland over 100mm of rain is coming (check hourly and daily forecasts for more localised totals).

A little rain will affect Southland and a few showers for the western North Island – otherwise most other regions are dry.
