Weather Forecast for Whangamata

Hi Guest

Must be something at your end, maps work fine and no virus here. Your anti virus software possibly can't recognise the pop up window or maybe it's the add's in the window it doesn't like? There might be a function to ignore it's suggestion which you could use. Best to get in touch with your IT guy at work as it's hard to know the problem from here behind cyber space.

Sure there is.

You can head along to http://www.weatherzone.co.nz then click on the radar images at the bottom depending on where you are looking for.

http://www.metvuw.com is another place, more specifically http://www.metvuw.com/radar/radar.php?location=nz will take you to the radar page. Only issue is they only do 3 hourly updates on metvuw at present.

Then there is the metservice website for radar which is where they originate from at http://www.metservice.com

Hi there

Aaron here, analyst at WeatherWatch. As guest duely notes it will likely be wet (rain) in the time period you mention with breezy north to northwesterly winds, 20 to 25 kph. Rain eases to showers mid to late afternoon with a westerly wind change.

Cheers

It will be overcast and wet with a wind change likely later.

They are temp that says overnight 'max' which was part of a trial we ran to see how people felt about having an 'average' overnight low (as in winter the temp can vary bu several degrees from suburb to suburb).    However we are scrapping this - was interestnig to trial it though as it challenged us to look at the overnight low in a more generic term rather than the minimum which is almost always in Henderson.

Thanks very much - and this is the beauty of WeatherWatch.co.nz - we're as enthusiastic about the weather as our readers/followers so we are always working to ensure our updates are, in fact, up to date as something develops - like last night!  Thanks again for the nice message

Yep we've also raised our risk to moderate now, and low risk for hail.  Looks like we'll get a few rumbles/flashes. But the problem with Auckland is that it's so big, one end can have thunder/lightning and the other stars/clear skies! (forecasters nightmare!)

PD

Storms went from being just a handful (that we were monitoring but they weren't big enough to warn of) then mid evening they exploded into life (from 100 strikes an hour to 1200!)  prompting both us and MetService to up their risks to moderate - then WW went a step further raising that risk to high by 10pm.  Was a great thunderstorm that's for sure!

PD

Hi there

There is a resonable possibility that it could cause issues. Keep up to date with your airline and the weather conditions at the time is your best bet.

How is this crap for Winter? Even with the rain the sun is out most of the time with light winds and highs of up to 18 degrees? Try Winter in Moscow!

 Should dry out in Auckland for Fri and Sat... but then more warm rain.  Fingers crossed the westerly change we predicted for the second half of August eventuates.

- WW

somebody if i recall predicted drier weather towards end of August.

G'day

Next weekend at this stage looks like there is another low approaching but this time in the southern Tasman Sea and a building north to northwesterly airflow ahead of it. Should be dry and warm out in eastern areas, cloud in the west with generally speaking damp weather.

Wouldn't want to try and predict things to much this far out but to try and be a bit more accurate, showers on Saturday in the west turning to rain on Sunday, rain on Sunday more so on the South Island's West Coast.
