Kia ora Philip. Is there a surf/swell prediction on your site? I know you guys do enough already but its so accurate and informative and most surf sites are pathetic. Windy is reliable though. Thanks heaps and keep up the great work!

Hi Philip why is there no wednesday video on Rural weather site – but I just found it on youtube? Thanks.

Apologies Carla, something just as simple as a tag not being added when we posted. Thanks for letting us know, we’ve now fixed this.
