❄SNOW POTENTIAL ON THE INCREASE - more movement and activity in the Southern Ocean.

More favourable polar jet streams are set to fire off bursts of wintry weather towards the South Island over the next 7-8 days.

➡️Each front will get progressively colder as a general rule. In terms of finer details, this is an ever changing situation, which remains very fluid. A number of our town pages now have snow for Tuesday next week, with more snow potential possible around the 14-15th of August.

⛷Fantastic news for ski fields and snow enthusiasts, but for farmers this is now a period of weather to keep a close eye on.

💧❄Our first signs of change will get under way this Friday, with colder southerlies, rain and snow for the higher hill country.
