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,

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 🙂

drought for Auckland and for places that been flooding last 4-5 years?

Anne on 21/04/2026 7:39pm

Thurs 23, says 0% chance of 5.5 ml of rain …
I realise that forecasts are only a ‘best guess’ and can change at any time, but this seems to me on of the weirder ones, would love to know if there is an explanation

WW Forecast Team on 21/04/2026 8:07pm

Hi Anne, our rainfall data each day in the daily totals is actually broken into two segments: Daytime and nightime. So if you see that it means rainfall will be occuring overnight. If you use the rain graphs at RuralWeather.co.nz or in the WeatherWatch App you will be able to make more sense of it.
Kind regards
– WW
