Weather Forecast for Hamilton

Hi there, looks like NE winds picking up and a few showers about at this stage.  All the best and keep an eye on our detailed Whakatane forecast for more details. :)

Hi there, we'll do our best BUT sorry nothing significant at this stage, it's either too dry or then too warm. Might be some snow a week from now. All these highs from Australia are bringing either warm air, or, dry. Dry seems to be the biggest issue for the North Island. We're looking closely for the next snow event so check back for any news and weather updates. Thanks for the support too - it's very much appreciated!! :)

Hi there, at this time of the year (Just 5 days past the shortest day of the year) we have the lowest sunshine hours available. Lowest hours are in the south of the country. For example Invercargill has a sunrise at 8:30am and sets around 5:10pm...around 8 hours and 40 minutes of possible available sunlight (if it's not cloudy!). Compare that to Kaitaia in the north which has sunrise an hour earlier at 7:30am and sets just before 5:30pm - almost 1 and half hours more sunlight with 10 hours available sunshine hours when it's not cloudy or foggy.

Hi there, there is a chance of some fog patches tomorrow morning but clear skies too. Here's our latest data indicating some chance - but the forecast also suggests it may not be too serious, or at least broken up. 

Kind regards

Hi AJ, thanks for the question. Had a good look and from what I can see Naseby looks basically bone dry for the next 10 days. There may be some spits mid to late next week due to heavy West Coast rain that is possible briefly. We may have to wait another two weeks to get a decent southerly at this stage. We are snow sorry. :)  Phil.

It's looking fairly chilly but being close to the coast a frost isn't looking as likely as say Levin which is a tad further inland. 2 or 3 degrees overnight does look possible for you though.

Cheers

The 5 degree overnight temp is more for southern rural parts of Auckland, Warkworth would not drop as low overnight.

Hope that helps.

Hi there anonymous, not sure who you are but someone appears to be writing to WW daily frustrated with MetService forecasts not WeatherWatch ones. Since Friday we've gone out of our way to saying basically little rain or wind would be coming to Auckland for Sunday. This was supported by multiple news graphics and even rainfall maps showing that.

We are a free service entirely independent of the MetService, MetOcean and NIWA forecasts your taxes all fund. You'll need to write to MetService to ask them why they had such big forecasts today (MetService also prompted Auckland Civil Defence to issue statements about adverse weather today.our forecast since Friday said some patchy morning rain (less than 5mm) then sunny spells and mainly dry with light westerlies picking up a bit in the afternoon. 

In the future we won't be replying to people angry about MetService forecasts - we work REALLY hard to provide our own forecasts and none of them today indicated a stormy day for Auckland.

Kind regards and thank you for using our entirely free service.

Hi there, we just expect a couple of showers tonight, possibly a little heavy, but plenty of long dry spells. Increasingly dry weather overnight.

Cheers,
WW

Hi there, cheers for the local update and thank you for using our entirely free service. There is no lightning data showing up in the past 60 minutes anywhere in the North Island but looking at rain radar it's possible there was a single isolated rumble way out to sea in the Gulf. We wouldn't normally include that in a land forecast though. Main rain bands now clearing to the south with showers moving in from the west later. 

Cheers

Good afternoon, our Auckland forecast was always for a mostly cloudy day today and just a few sunny spells (which we had this morning). There is a low pressure system developing over northern NZ for the next 24 hours so expect changeable weather. Thank you for using our entirely free service.

Cheers

Good morning, we expect some morning rain but not an overly wet or stormy day so hopefully you'll be able to get out and enjoy a ferry ride to Devonport, especially once the sun comes out. Keep an eye on our detailed Auckland forecasts and check out our Devonport forecast for specifc hourly wind speeds and chance of rain for there.

All the best,

G'day there

Both regions look pretty good but perhaps the Coromandel tops the list, Northland could catch a southeasterly airflow which may mean some cloud and the chance of a shower in the east.

Have a good trip away! :)

Aaron

Perhaps for a time this evening but it may end up being fairly patchy.

WW

Don't think it will be pouring then but the odd shower may start to sneak in around then, in the evening (past 6pm) is when rain starts to set in.

Have a good one! :)

Cheers
Aaron

Hi there

Not looking very likely for fog then going by the latest weather maps, I think you'll be all good :)

Cheers
Aaron

Nothing all that cold for the foreseeable future at this stage, perhaps July will throw a really cold one into the mix.

Hi there

Nothing really in the pipeline for Auckland in the next week or two, if anything looks possible coming up in the future beyond that we will include it on our Auckland forecast page.

Cheers
Aaron

Ohhh wouldn't 28 degrees be lovely :) Thanks for letting us know about the error. We have removed this station for now - let us know if you're still seeing any issues later today (may take an hour or so to disappear).

Thanks for the update, enjoy your high of 15 degrees or so today!

- WW

For Auckland? Correct. But that will mainly be for southern rural parts of the region, the CBD may be a tad higher.
