We have no video this Friday so we’ve brought our 7 Day RainWatch update ahead one day. A number of cold fronts will be moving into NZ over the coming days and early next week, before high pressure once again takes over.

Patchy rain and showers are widespread across NZ but totals may not be massive, between a few mm and up to maybe 20 or 30 for some who get the heavier falls.

Next week high pressure returns with a few coastal showers.

We take a closer look at NZ’s rainfall chances over the next week, as we do each and every week (normally Fridays) as some regions deal with drought like conditions
