Weather Forecast for Nelson

Still the risk of a couple isolated showers, more so at the end of the day - otherwise a mostly dry day!

Good morning,

Showers seem scattered over Auckland this morning with hits and misses in places. Should gradually ease up throughout the day with longer dry spells.Hopefully the breeze should help dry the washing later as well :)

Cheers

Hi there - sorry we check comments every hour or two so this was a bit too short notice for us!  Hamilton and Auckland sharing similar weather today, long sunny spells then a big heavy shower and those cold winds!

Cheers!

Hi there - it depends on how much time you need to do it.  There is a high coming in next week from around Monday to Thursday, but it may not be perfectly settled.  As we head into winter the sunny spells will be shorter lived.  We'll have a general June prediction out in about 10 days too.

Cheers

p.s  Keep an eye on our Maps link at the top of the page, has wind, rain and swell maps for anywhere in the world!

Hi there - an active line of heavy rain formed late this morning from Northland to Waikato - but it was more to Auckland's east so only grazed the city with a few spits of rain and dark threatening clouds.

It's now tracking away from Auckland to the south east so we have blue sky (note our forecast changed a couple of hours ago to reflect this, others are still saying thundery rain this afternoon).

However, there are bands of rain yet to come in - the next one is expected this evening and another two or three overnight and into Tuesday morning.  So long dry spells then the potential for thunder and heavy rain, then another long dry spell etc.

Cheers

Hi Jennifer - it's short for 'precipitation' and it's used because we don't always know how that precipitation will fall - as rain, hail, snow, showers, drizzle etc - or sometimes all of the above!  So that one word is best to sum it all up. 

Cheers

Try after christmas for a run of fine days,from here on till then a couple a month.

Guidance suggests late next week (Friday and Saturday) may be dry at this stage, it is a while away however.

Cheers WW

Which just goes to show how much our forecast team add to the raw data - and this is why we don't do a 10 day forecast for any centre in the country, the long range models still need more work.

 Hi there, just raw data in for those days at this stage, we are waiting until early afternoon for some extra data. Agree re: Sunday but there is thunder potential for early next week thanks to a big Southern Ocean low which will spread across the entire nation. Check for our next forecast update around 1pm

Hi there - at this stage the forecast is looking pretty good actually - mostly sunny, a few clouds and a less than 10% chance of showers.  The pattern later this week and into Saturday is still a little messy, so feel free to check back for updates or click on the Whangarei forecast on the right hand side of the page.

Cheers

It be horrible SW pattern,means it be overcast with a few showers and windy,typical Auckland weather.

Hi there - at this stage Friday and Saturday are a little uncertain but none of the data we use suggests a very wet day.  40% risk of a shower on Friday otherwise cloudy periods and sou'westers at this stage - check back for updates though, as the weather pattern at the end of the week is a little messy.

Cheers

WW

Hi there - we think most parts of Auckland will be around 4 to 7 degrees overnight.  Some isolated inland areas, like Henderson Valley, may drop a degree or two lower.  Unsure about where exactly it will be 1 but most likely in the valleys out West.

Cheers

Hi there - use our maps link at the top of the page - you can zoom to anywhere on the planet and see the forecast for the next 14 days!  Failing that, we always promote weather.com as being a really reliable source for forecasts globally.  Check them out too.  Have a great trip!

Probably better than Aucklands weather today. at least it be warm.

A good chance it will be SW (like today) with showers or cloudy periods with straight easterlies,thats all we seem to get lately.this will cover all bases.

Sorry, not just yet.  That's a bit too far away to make any real sound prediction.  By the time Monday rolls around, you will see some of the first bits of information on that day.

Cheers, Howard

I think chances for showers are few and far between.  So I think your chances are pretty good for a being rain-free at that time.

Have fun.  You are braver than I.  My knees get weak just THINKING about doing that.  Yikes.

Cheers, Howard
