Kia ora guys, I am fascinated by cloud formations and their relationship to the whenua as well as conditions in the air. Is there an informative resource you could direct me to that would help me broaden my knowledge?

Kia ora Carolyn, there are a couple of good sites to check to learn more about clouds.
1) World Meteorological Organisation: https://wmo.int/world-meteorological-day-2017/classifying-clouds
2) Cloud Atlas (extremely detailed with thousands of cloud photos/types) https://cloudatlas.wmo.int/en/home.html
Hope that helps!

Hi guys is it possible Nelson might have drought this summer or is it unlikely also what caused the Nelson drought in 2019

Hi Jet, drought is possible every summer in NZ, but for now there are no signs of drought for you. Nelson itself is showing signs of drying out, but the region is still in a very good set up. Would need little to no rain for at least 6 weeks to even get closer to that territory.
Cheers
Phil

And in Whangarei we had 5mm since Monday! Certainly very hard to forecast.
Thanks for all the good work this year Phil, I hope you have some quiet holiday weeks before we get into cyclone season 🙂
