A FINE & SETTLED LOOK TO OUR THURSDAY – LATE LOW CLOUD POSSIBLE FOR EASTERN AREAS.
Good morning. It’s a clear start for most, with many towns and areas waking to light frosts. Twizel is currently our coldest spot on -3.1 degrees, closely followed by Culverden & Hanmer Springs both sharing -2 degrees.
We do have a few ‘pockets’ of fog about this morning, any fog will be ‘sizzled’ by 9am.
Our current ridge of high pressure will continue to bring sunny, settled and pleasant conditions across the region until Sunday.
•We may see some areas of anticyclonic ‘gloom’ (low cloud) this evening and into Friday morning for many coastal areas and towns across the Canterbury Plains; lower risk on Saturday morning.
•Next week we’re watching a more active week of weather with a number of fronts and systems. All towns have been updated with all the latest rainfall totals and snowfall levels & accumulations.
