Settled weather comes to an end
05/12/2022
Covering period of Monday 5 - Thursday 8 December
 
We’ve enjoyed some settled weather over the past few days but, according to MetService, a change is on the way. The ridge of high pressure which held steady over the North Island is set to move away to the east on Wednesday making way for a series of more active weather systems coming from the Tasman Sea.
