The weatherwatch ‘day’ starts at 7am and finishes at the same time the following day. A 24 hour period.

Are you satisfied that this best meets the needs of your viewers?

It’s confusing somewhat I feel. I could look at Thursday for example and there’s no rain predicted… when in fact there might be a strong possibilty of rain on Thursday between 0000 and 0700. But you’ve accounted for that rain on Wednesday. It’s just not correct. A civil/calendar day would be better in my opinion.

Cheers,
Blake

Hi Blake, that is the way the data is delivered to us and currently we don’t have a work around for it. Visit RuralWeather.co.nz or download our app for clearer rain graphs.
Kind regards,

7am is a start of the day ,after a night of sleep. I think the 7am to 7 am day is good practical solution.
It shows overnight rain etc as part of that night, not rain to midnight then rain to 7 am, so you don’t have to add two figures together to get the overnight forecasted rain.
In the olden days before computerisation to weather day was 9 am to 9 am, so the met staff could do their reading during the working day.

Yeah, I agree, I like it like that too. Most of the time I want to know what is happening when I’m going to be outside working, not asleep in bed. I check out the hourly breakdown for a closer look if I want to know more.

Hi, there is a lot of noise on social media and news sites about the El Nino this year. Maybe you could do a video with the facts as they are known as of now?

WW Forecast Team on 30/04/2026 12:13am

Hi Colin, we will do next week 🙂
