As usual, your weather forecast is completely wrong. But you are not alone. Every other site I look at is also wrong. Talk about money for nothing. Just get into the forecasting game.

Hi Jet, take a look at the satellite map – at the end you can see a clear line moving into Nelson. https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/maps-radars/observations/satellite

Josh, Latest news from ENSO blog says La Nina has ended. Neutral conditions predicted.https://www.climate.gov/news-features/blogs/enso.
My opinion (WW will correct me if I’m wrong) is the Tasman Sea, Coral Sea and Western Pacific Ocean are very warm atm https://www.ospo.noaa.gov/products/ocean/sst/anomaly/ . Seas with very warm temperature anomalies increases the chances of breeding depressions. I think we are experiencing one of these events atm.

Hi Josh
Yes, Auckland is looking very wild. We are supposed to get thunderstorms in Hamilton over the weekend, but I’m not holding my breath. It’s Hamilton, after all. I’ll let you know.
PS: I hope you get some T-storms with this cyclone tail as well. Happy Easter to you too.
