Sunshine reigns supreme

1/04/2009 5:00pm

Why waste words when we can some up the weather over the next couple of days for these main centres using just one – “Sunny“.

Auckland
Hamilton
Tauranga
Rotorua
Taupo
New Plymouth
Wanganui
Palmerston North
Wellington
Nelson
Blenheim
Christchurch
Timaru
Dunedin

Ok so we need a few more words for these areas…”Sunny and cloudy periods“

Whangarei (could be a light shower today)
Gisborne (could be a light shower today).
Napier
Masterton
Invercargill
Westport

A simple forecast thanks to a very large high.

Yep, we know the weather’s gone very quiet lately… so help us add content to the site! Post comments on the weather where you are today or send us a photo.

Barometric pressure peaked on my trusty aneroid at 30.46 inches of mercury = 1031.5 hPa. Had hoped to make 1040. But still it is the highest I have recorded in Motueka over the 5 years I have been here.

A local private weather station (http://www.warren.co.nz/weather) had a max of 1034 hPa at 12:30 am this morning.

Does anyone know what the highest pressure ever recorded in NZ was?

Answered my own question:According to the Met Service – the highest pressure over land recorded in New Zealand was 1046hp, in the late 1800s.

Old story from last year that may help?
