Hey Phillip thanks very much for the last 6-7 years I’ve followed you and watch your videos every post!! As its YouTube could you upload a bloopers compilation?? This would be quite a laugh! Cheers.

hi guys what would the setup need to be if nelson had strong Southerlies?

WW Forecast Team on 17/12/2025 4:45am

Hey Jet, you need strong high pressure building from Tasmania and moving into the South Island while a stormy low pressure zone lies east of Wellington, that would do it.
