We have a refreshing start to the working week with below average overnight lows, more normal daytime highs and dry weather returns to the West Coast after a week of deluges.

This week NZ is stuck between air pressure systems with a high to our west and a low to our north east. We don’t have a lot of dramatic weather this week, instead the nation leads drier than average.

Cooler nights for the next few nights ahead in some regions, warming up as the week progresses.
