Hi Josh, more than likely a combination of normal spring plus the SSW making lows south of NZ move further northwards into NZ. Not seeing any signs of the possible La Nina affecting our weather pattern in NZ or the South Pacific just yet.

cheers phillip. i see theres been a hurricane gabrielle looming around the Europe states with parts of spain hit recently. its lasted quite a couple of weeks starting in the Caribbean then moved torwards Europe. i think its now a post tropical storm but intrewsting to follow its track the name caught me on. I know that particular name wont be used in this part of the world though due to 2023 gabrielle impacts on new zealand.

It’s actually quite warm indoors in Auckland tonight on 29 September, it’s quite reminiscent of summer! The only difference is that there would be more forecasted rain coming along the way for the week.
I’m not sure if it’s normally this warm and humid at this time of the year (temperatures reached 21 C at its highest point and 15 C at its lowest point).
