CONDITIONS QUITE DRY

Fairly dry for the next seven days thanks to plenty of high pressure, the South Island especially. The North Island picks up more easterly quarter air flows with lows coming close moving in from the north, these easterlies bring a higher chance of rain or showers on Monday and Tuesday next week then again on Thursday and Friday.
