Windier conditions might not be everyones cup of tea but the new wind flow has helped bump temperatures across the South Island’s east coast, as predicted by WeatherWatch.co.nz.
From Nelson to Blenheim and down to Dunedin most centres are around 13 or 14 degrees this hour.
Inland, where it’s been very cold lately, centres are in the double digits with Wanaka and Gore on 12 and Queenstown on 11.
Gusty nor’westers have moved into Southland and will spread north tonight, reaching the North Island tomorrow.

Phil, are you aware that on the same page you have articles
“Winds move into NI, cooler again in SI”, and “Warmer conditions move into the SI”..?

Well clearly the stories are two different days – the first one, on Monday, talks about warmer winds in the SI on that day… the second story, published the next day (Tuesday) talks of colder sou’westers moving back in.
