A warm start to the week
08/12/2025
Covering period of Monday 8th - Thursday 11th December
Warm, mostly sunny conditions dominate the North Island and eastern South Island

Brief bursts of wind and rain for the lower South Island
After last week’s thunderstorms, heavy downpours and rapidly changing skies across the North Island, this week sees a strong contrast as conditions have taken a noticeably calmer and warmer turn. A settled early summer pattern is over Aotearoa New Zealand, bringing warm days, light winds and long fine spells for much of the country, though the south will feel a bit more varied.
