Hi,
Does the WeatherWatch app work in any other country in the world when traveling abroad when we use the current location feature?

Hi there, yes it does – although you cannot search for global locations you can use the GPS ‘find my location’ feature and it will find your local forecast wherever you are on earth. Side note: While the graphs and data will be for wherever you are, all the maps will still be NZ centric.
Cheers

Looks as if the rain for Central Otago should be gone by early afternoon tomorrow.

Auckland seems to have had almost constant cloud for some time now, with a little bit of sun poking through every now and again. And looks like another 10 days to come. Is there anything in the medium term forecast for when we might to see some longer sunnier days? Cheers

Hi Josh, more than likely a combination of normal spring plus the SSW making lows south of NZ move further northwards into NZ. Not seeing any signs of the possible La Nina affecting our weather pattern in NZ or the South Pacific just yet.

cheers phillip. i see theres been a hurricane gabrielle looming around the Europe states with parts of spain hit recently. its lasted quite a couple of weeks starting in the Caribbean then moved torwards Europe. i think its now a post tropical storm but intrewsting to follow its track the name caught me on. I know that particular name wont be used in this part of the world though due to 2023 gabrielle impacts on new zealand.
