Despite being a beautiful day in the Bay, today did not start so bright and sunny with heavy showers dumping 8mm of rain earlier this morning.
Over the last 24 hours 9.4mm of rain fell, 8mm of which fell between 6am and 10am this morning.
Six am saw the heaviest
deluge with 6.6mm of rain falling around that time.
However Tauranga can put away the umbrellas as MetService predicts a fine and dry week ahead.
MetService communications meteorologist Lisa Murray said Tauranga was looking to be one of the more consistent spots around the country with dry and sunny skies for the rest of the week.
