\u201cWe\u2019re not expecting extremely large rainfall intensities, but just due to the length of time, there could be some reasonable total rainfall amounts over that period.\u201d<\/p>\n
As the front tracks north and moves across both islands, most parts of the motu are expected to receive at least some rain tomorrow.<\/p>\n
\u201cPretty much everywhere in the country will see a bit of rain during Sunday.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat all pretty quickly moves east, though, so most places won\u2019t see a huge amount of rain.\u201d<\/p>\n
The change will also bring temperatures back around to the winter average for this time of year.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe extremely cold temperatures we\u2019ve had are pretty much gone now\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith this extra cloud that\u2019s coming over tonight, it\u2019s going to be a fair bit warmer.\u201d<\/p>\n
That being said, a road snowfall warning has been issued for Crown Range Rd, which stretches between Wanaka and Queenstown. <\/p>\n
The warning will be in place from 10pm tonight to 6am tomorrow. <\/p>\n
Rain may turn to snow about the summit, which could accumulate between 1 to 3cm high.<\/p>\n
Overnight lows are expected to reach the teens again in Northland, Kaitaia and Auckland, while Wellington will hit 9C and Christchurch 4C.<\/p>\n
\u201cStill a little bit chilly, not completely warm, but a fair bit warmer than what we have had over the last few days.\u201d<\/p>\n
Frosts will linger for central parts of both islands but are expected to have vanished heading into the next working week.<\/p>\n
White said next week will be \u201cmessy\u201d thanks to a series of troughs.<\/p>\n
Scattered showers will build on Monday, particularly on the western coasts, before more widespread wet weather develops.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a lot of small troughs and features around the place that models all have different ideas on,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSuffice to say Tuesday and Wednesday are looking wet for a lot of places, but exact timings and locations are a little bit up in the air.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cWe\u2019re not expecting extremely large rainfall intensities, but just due to the length of time, there could be…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":562322,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[2840,806,3013,24004,2841,10808,4731,4726,55264,2082,168299,220034,60388,3025,111,43,139,69,2642,6560,29544,8244,103577,35108,87116,166,38666,1961,61,32259,4998,4767],"class_list":["post-562321","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-zealand","tag-across","tag-as","tag-but","tag-coming","tag-country","tag-crown","tag-days","tag-ends","tag-everywhere","tag-for","tag-frigid","tag-frosty","tag-mornings","tag-most","tag-new-zealand","tag-news","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-rd","tag-rain","tag-range","tag-recent","tag-spell","tag-spread","tag-spreads","tag-sunny","tag-temperatures","tag-this","tag-to","tag-warm","tag-weather","tag-weekend"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/562321","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=562321"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/562321\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/562322"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=562321"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=562321"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=562321"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
