Holy Moly! What on earth is going on with your Franz Josef forecast? The app says we’re getting -7 deg tonight and a high of 3deg today…. we’re currently at 8deg. The next 10 days the temps are more like Alexandra during a cold week than our normal.

Is there anyway we can see rainfall in last 24hrs from stations.
A bit exhausting getting up at midnight, recording accumulated rainfall for the day, then adding it to the 8am reading……

Sadly both MetService (and what was Niwa – now Earth Sciences) commercialise access and display of tax funded historical data. Put simply, last time we asked NZ’s two Government Agencies for public historical weather data we were told it would be 1 million dollars or more per year (Niwa). Free in all other modern nations. We’re as frustrated as you are, but β€œThe Crown” is a commercial business as much as it is as Government. According to the New Zealand Commerce Commission or Government β€œnothing can be done about this”.

holy smokes orange rain warning for auckland tommorow.some decent heavy rain on already damp ground in auckland tommorow. is this a atmospheric river?

josh on 10/07/2025 12:20am

there seems to be a rain/downpour train stuck over northland and Auckland atm. a bit concerning given what is forecasted for tommorow.

Jess on 8/07/2025 12:10am

Why can I not see the current temperature for Huntly? It’s been like this for a week or so

WW Forecast Team on 10/07/2025 3:02am

Hi Jess, we are looking in to it. It may simply be the owners of those stations have them offline/moved. But will double check.
Cheers
