More sunny days and chilly nights are in store for much of the country for the remainder of the long weekend, WeatherWatch says.
New Zealand basked in sunny - if chilly - weather today because of a high set to remain until the middle of next week.
WeatherWatch head analyst Philip Duncan said it looked good for the remainder of the long weekend, bar a couple of foggy or frosty patches in sheltered inland areas.
"Saturday was a beautiful day across the whole country really and we're seeing temperatures that are about average for this time of year. If you're out of the breeze and you're in the sun it's lovely."
Monday would likely be even better, with the weather forecast to be still and warmer than Saturday or Sunday.
