Labour Weekend is fast approaching and it looks like a bit of rain is on the way. Photo/file
It looks like the clear blue skies and sunshine the Bay of Plenty has been experiencing may be interrupted by a few showers this Labour Weekend.
MetService meteorologist Kyle Lee said the weather should be settled coming into the long weekend as a ridge of high pressure gives way to
a weak front on Saturday.
However, Mr Lee said cloud will increase on Friday with isolated showers expected during the afternoon and evening of Friday.
On Saturday and Sunday, the weather is expected to be partly cloudy with isolated showers, mainly in the ranges.
Things are set to get worse as Monday approaches.
