Area Description:
Bream Head to Cape Colville, Hauraki Gulf, Waitematā Harbour, Manukau Harbour
Situation:
A ridge of high pressure moves onto northern New Zealand today, while northwesterlies develop over the South Island as a front approaches the far south. On Tuesday, the ridge moves away to the east of the country as a low deepens in the Tasman Sea, while the front moves onto Fiordland. A large low pressure system in the Tasman Sea moves onto New Zealand on Wednesday, then pulls away to the east on Thursday followed by a west to southwest flow. On Friday, a very cold southerly flow is expected to affect southern and central New Zealand, while showery westerlies affect northern New Zealand.
