It is a stark contrast from the warmestplace, Kaitaia, which was recording 16C.
It is expected to be a relatively fine day in the south but not so much in the North Island where most cities should prepare for rain.
Metservice is predicting a low-pressure system will approach the North Island from the Tasman Sea today.
The low should then move southeast tomorrow and Friday, bringing periods of heavy rain and strong winds to parts of the North Island, and also the Marlborough Sounds.
