Sunshine and warm weather are forecast for most parts of New Zealand this week - except for Wednesday.
Aucklanders should wake to a fine spring day today, with light winds and a maximum temperature of around 19C throughout the day.
Aucklanders enjoyed a bright Sunday morning - and many people
made the most of the sunshine - before rain dampened things in the afternoon.
MetService weather forecaster Chris Noble said fine weather could be expected today, tomorrow and Thursday and Friday - with Wednesday the exception.
"Wednesday will bring one or two showers with similar mid to high temperatures," Mr Noble said.
"But it should be pretty good for the rest of the week."
West coast areas from Northland to the Manawatu and Kapiti can expect fine weather throughout the week, except for Wednesday night showers.
Eastern areas - including Gisborne to the Wairarapa - are expected to stay fine.
Mr Noble said those in the South Island could expect a mix of fine and drizzly weather, with cloud and rain forecast for Fiordland and Westland tonight.
"But in the east of the South Island - it's staying fine, with high cloud," he said.
In Christchurch, temperature highs of around 20C are expected this week.
Fairly mild and very warm weather is forecast for Canterbury and Otago, with temperatures ranging from 22C to 24C throughout the week.
