You’ve ignored the centre of the North Island again, no mention of anything around the Central Plateau.
Where’s Taupo?

Hi Keith
Thanks for your comment and unfortunately we aren’t covering all centres at this point in time but will take it into consideration. Rotorua was the closest but we also didn’t cover Wanganui, Timaru, Queenstown etc etc
We try and aim for the biggest population centres but at times we do cover a number of areas off with regional forecasts.
Cheers
Weatherwatch team
