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.

Hello, just saw that IAUCKL939 is not showing any readings as of the moment.

Thank you very much for all your hard work for forecasting over the holidays and adding more weather stations in Auckland! The forecasts are the most accurate and I enjoy being able to see how much rain there is per area as well.

You go to one website to tell people to go to another website scaremongering everyone. How about you trust the website you’re currently on.

A Happy New Year to you Phil and all the team that make WW the great weather service that it has become over the last 15 years.
And all without the millions of dollars that the MetOffice and Niwa suck up every year and still provide a sub par weather service in return.
I wish you could become the National weather forecaster!
Enjoy your well earned break and I am looking forward to the return of the little green hand 🙂

Hi there, there seems to be a glitch on your hourly forecasts which don’t change for subsequent days of the upcoming week -it remains stuck on the current day’s hourly forecast. Has been doing that for last couple of days. Here’s to a lovely settled summer soon!

Carol on 2/01/2026 4:38am

Hi – are you aware that the rain shows the same amount hourly every day next week for Pukekohe?

Chrisp on 1/01/2026 7:52pm

Looks like a possible cyclone mid month. Not showing on your models ala Cyclone Tam….?
