Really ! Weather forecast for kaiapoi said 2 days of torrential rain this week. We cancelled holiday to only see today we might possibly get a little shower!!!
How can you get it so wrong?

Luke on 19/04/2026 7:00am

Hey Linda,

Phil explained recently that this current low is very difficult to predict as it is really messy. There has been no forecaster that has correctly predicted any of this weather for more than a day ahead. That’s just the reality of the business sometimes.

Christine on 18/04/2026 11:45pm

Why does your weather forecast often differ from Met Service.? Very confusing.

Jacques on 19/04/2026 10:23pm

Because they use the forecast models that get it wrong

Jet on 14/04/2026 11:03pm

Hi weather watch earlier today I checked the forecast for nelson for Sunday and said thunderstorms now it says rain is there any reason why ?

John on 14/04/2026 4:12am

Hi, do you offer soil temperature by district? Particularly useful in rural weather this time of year and spring

WW Forecast Team on 14/04/2026 9:37pm

Hi John, no sorry we don’t have that data (all historical data in NZ is owned by Niwa/MetService and they don’t share this data easily). However some local councils do have good free information on current soil temperatures, but that soil data varies from council to council. The NZ Government treats current/historic weather data as something they can leverage to commercialise, unlike most other modern nations where this data is all freely available for public good, and is designed by Govt to keep Niwa/MetService more commercially relevant and to limit fair competition (like us) from being too successful.
Cheers
