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.

Thanks for your support!

Kia ora Philip. Is there a surf/swell prediction on your site? I know you guys do enough already but its so accurate and informative and most surf sites are pathetic. Windy is reliable though. Thanks heaps and keep up the great work!

WW Forecast Team on 21/10/2025 7:51pm

Kia ora Kev, the team at Ripple recently gave us these maps to use: https://www.weatherwatch.co.nz/maps-radars/marine/ripple Hope you find them helpful! We also have PredictWind on our site too (on the same page). We are working to improve this page in the new year too, thanks to the team at Ripple.
Cheers
Phil

Hi Philip why is there no wednesday video on Rural weather site – but I just found it on youtube? Thanks.

WW Forecast Team on 16/10/2025 1:07am

Apologies Carla, something just as simple as a tag not being added when we posted. Thanks for letting us know, we’ve now fixed this.

WW Forecast Team on 16/10/2025 6:10am
