Lake alexandrina?

Very cool photo

I’m loving these sunny days let’s me get out in the garden but the weeds are winning unfortunately

Gorgeous 🥰

Was only 1.7 & not the -3 they said - but still a light frost. One forgets there can be frosts in Spring.

Serine and beautiful pic.

The lake is so clear

Extremely windy up inland road still no power!!

Insane winds and rain at Stavely, still very windy now. Was worried for our calves and pivots 😳

Was very windy in Ashburton last night, at one stage I checked metservice an it said gust at 91kms. Still windy now but nowhere as bad as last night.

VERY strong wind Mt Lyford area on the Inland road! Power still out.

Our trampoline went for a skate pretty early in the night spent most of it wedged against the house. Luckily undamaged

It was? I didn't notice a thing! Must've been sheltered up our valley.

Was very bad in waipara and picked up again now few showers (gale cloud) blasted thru as well (in the night)

Was scary night, lots of banging, paling off fence. Would have been galwfirce for sure. No trees down on way to work.

Spectacular have jst had weekend at Aoraki Mount Cook

Certainly a wild one out Oxford way. Didn't get a lot of sleep.

Stunning

Extremely Windy in Christchurch last night

Had a few big gusts at our place & then nothing. Nothing really overnight & not much this morning either. Thought all of Ch- Ch was getting it.

Did anyone get a photo of the stunning moonbow last night? Saw it whilst driving out in the wild winds from Cust to West Eyreton around 9:30 last night. Didn't have my decent camera on me to try capture it

Sounds like our weather!

Live in a house bus. Very scary. Lots of rocking. Thought I'd be fairly sheltered in a camp, but not from nw! Got paranoid, went to camp kitchen n made toast n watched TV till 5am. Might do nana nap this arvo. Still quite windy but from south so not so bad

Oh dear. I slept through the lot.

Damn I'd love a big thunderstorm in chch... although we are surrounded by a moat from last rain. One of the flax tree leaves looked like a eel lol... if im crazy enuf you may just find me fishing off the deck 😆🤭👌

wet and windy in hokitika nothing special

Warm , no heat pump needed , slight breeze in New Brighton .

Beautiful x

Crazy night, lost power in West Eyreton last night... winds just nuts... still a bit windy now but more bearable

Must have a good conscience. Slept through it all.

Windy was understatement, geez she was swirling

Blossoms stripped😪

🎥 Contrast across the region this evening; east is best! Webcam images of Mt Cook National Park and Kaikoura. Thanks to Snapit for the imagery.

🌡⛅ Kaikoura 15.2 degrees at 6:15pm

💧🌀 Mt Cook 6.8 degrees at 6:15pm - high intensity falls setting in this evening and gusts possibly exceeding 120km/hr tonight.

➡️ Take care on the roads overnight and early tomorrow, especially about our alpine passes with a focus on Arthurs Pass - thunderstorms, severe nor-west gales, torrential rain and possible snow by Tuesday morning.

📌Check in with NZ Transport Agency - South Island for the latest road information.

🌀 Gales will be widespread overnight - with gale force winds possibly touching down in Christchurch later tonight. As a general rule winds will be more sustained and severe about Inland Canterbury with elevation - check in with our warning below for unmatched detail.
