If you have any questions about functionality of our website(s) or app, trying to locate maps or data, or have a simple comment/feedback - please post a comment below!

As of 2024 we will no longer be publishing questions related to weather forecasts if they are answered via our hyper-local hourly & 10 day forecasts, weather maps and regular daily and monthly weather & climate videos.

We’re a small NZ business with limited resources to respond to general weather questions. Our social media pages may be helpful to you, especially if you want to often talk (or groan!) about your local weather. You can find more resources from us here if that’s your thing.

Have questions of a commercial nature? Contact us directly here.

Thanks for your support!

Don’t forget to check out our RuralWeather.co.nz website (great for event planning or attending + camping!) and also, our brand new Weather Alerting App!

G’day Phil & WW crew.
I have a question about something that pops up now and then under the ‘NOW’ info. When it is particularly cold, the floating point number of NaN° appears in the ‘Humidex’ reading. Why is that? I’m asking b/c I find the non-number value interesting. Is it too cold for the thermometer, the system, or the programmers?? (LOL)

Please let a weather geek know and if it’s too cold for the programmers…..the answer is, as always, More Coffee!!! :))

Thanking you all @ WW for the stellar job you do.

Hi Phil & Weather Watch Team.
Follow you guys religiously.
You guys do an amazing job delivering the weather.
Understand how the highs out of the Tasman affect NZ.
Just wondering if & when those highs creep higher north on your modeling.
I’m Hawkes Bay based. (Pakipaki)
Would love some decent rain.
Keep up the the good work.
Cheers Jared.

New to your site. Two questions:
1) in your “now” section, there appear to be different location available. Can I find out where they are?
2) Do you have any past weather data and if so how do I access it.
Your site significantly better than metservice 🙂

WW Forecast Team on 9/05/2024 11:29pm

Hi Philip,
Welcome to our site!
1): You can try looking for them on our observations page here: https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/maps-radars/observations/live-observations OR if you use our new app it will display a map with the nearest ones to your specific chosen location (and you can use the GPS ‘find my location’ function).
2) Sadly in NZ there is no open weather data from MetService or NIWA (NZ Government’s two seperate tax funded/owned weather forecasters) so we can’t even display publicly paid for data. With regards to the weather stations we do display, we’re only a third party displaying privately owned stations via Wunderground so have no access to history sorry. But you can try Wunderground.com itself for more.
Regards,
– WW

Great stuff, worked for me too!

Morning All at WW
Are the rain trends not working, haven’t been able to get mine for 2 days.
Cheers

WW Forecast Team on 1/05/2024 9:52pm

Hi Malcolm – Sorry about that. We do have a bug in the system which is waiting on the App Store to approve and push out. In the meantime, try unselecting and re-selecting your location again. That appears to be working for some. Apologies for the bug – hopefully the app stores approve the fix ASAP.
Cheers

Hi Weatherwatch. Just letting you know that the site IMASTE31 has not read/displayed any temperature over the last few days. Love your work, btw. R

WW Forecast Team on 28/04/2024 3:25am

Hi Robyn, thanks for the kind comment and letting us know. We don’t have any control over the weather stations other than displaying them or not. So if you think it’s a long term problem we can remove it – or give it a week and see if it comes right (feel free to contact us again if you still want us to remove it).
Cheers
– WW
