My app says occasional showers🤔

Nothing on my weather app only 30% rain

Was this the low you thought would bring snow to 200m? Or is there more coming?

How about a date on these

Just in time for the weekend.

Dang that's gunna be fun for my bathroom renos and having to portaloo.

I guess that explains the very pink sky between 7 and 7.30 this morning

Really? The met service weather app is showing fine weather for the next 3 days.

Yuss, il be driving back in it

Another pleasant sunrise this morning at Waikuku Beach ❤️

Today was amazing. Into the badlands from Hanmer Springs...hot...windy..barren...⛽️ Fuel light came on 10km out, with Jacks Pass to climb from the Clarence side. Fowlers Hut. Empty the tank!
