We’re in the final stretch of October and the month will go out how it came in – unsettled.

We have a cold front for Wednesday and Thursday across the country then high pressure rolls in for the start of November with this weekend looking warmer, drier and more settled.

High pressure looks to dominate northern NZ this week then again into next week.

Most regions have below average rainfall in the next week, except for the West Coast and maybe some parts of Southland.
