Hi WW,
I just want to know how many air masses do we have in New Zealand? Because I think it varies from country to country.

Hey Obai, this link explains air masses (although it may be a bit heavy reading) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_mass
In NZ we focus on a few main areas… 1) the Polar area over the Antarctic region (dry and cold), 2) the Southern Ocean (stormy), 3) Australia’s interior (hot and dry), 4) Sub-tropics (can be warm and very wet). These are basically the main areas that shift our temperatures the most and give us our extremes.
Cheers

Why two variations of forecast for Massey and the other is Massey comma Auckland
Weather Forecast for Massey
Showers then rain later (possibly heavy), easing overnight as blustery to gale NE winds tend lighter NW.
https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/forecasts/massey
AND YET
Weather Forecast for Massey, Auckland
Blustery NE winds, gale in exposed places. Rain, heavy at times. Winds turning NW later and easing, along with rain easing.

Hi Ray,
They have identical forecasts – we updated the forecast this evening and one was showing the older forecast. You may have selected it around the time we update so one had the previous forecast, the other the new one. (as the second one you’ve quoted was the updated one, to highlight rain had arrived now – and leading with the wind which was peaking an hour ago.
Cheers
WW

Hi Anna
Feel free to check out our forecast for Omarama here:
https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/forecasts/Omarama-Otematata,%20Otematata,%20Canterbury
My personal take is it will be a dry day, light northwesterlies but plenty of thick high cloud. Not very warm, sitting around 8 to 9 degrees.
Have a good day! 🙂
Cheers
Aaron
