Frosts are possible for Waikato, inland Bay of Plenty and Taup\u014d, as well as inland parts of the South Island.<\/p>\n

Aucklanders could expect clear skies and dry conditions on Saturday night with overnight lows of about 7C or 8C as temperatures drop after sunset.<\/p>\n

\u201cA chilly night to go out to see Olivia Dean, but hopefully it should be dry, fine, clear, and some nice starry skies on the way home,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

The high-pressure system will keep things relatively settled on Sunday and early next week, particularly across the North Island.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not looking like a bad start to next week, back into some dry, fine, sunny conditions for Monday, Tuesday, and our daytime temperatures just picking up a touch compared to those chilly weekend nights.\u201d<\/p>\n

Showers could affect parts of the South Island, including Fiordland and Southland, but are expected to clear.<\/p>\n

Southerly swells could make conditions rougher along some eastern coastlines, although areas such as the Bay of Plenty and Auckland\u2019s eastern harbours will be more sheltered.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019d still be looking at taking some extra care, especially around that eastern coast through Saturday and Sunday, but I think we should find that starts to ease off towards the start of next week,\u201d Law said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Frosts are possible for Waikato, inland Bay of Plenty and Taup\u014d, as well as inland parts of the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":632612,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[2840,95,62437,3470,8278,2841,5972,2837,5616,220034,15219,111,43,139,11550,69,1118,17711,1569,166,1961,4998,4767,102],"class_list":["post-632611","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-zealand","tag-across","tag-and","tag-chilly","tag-clear","tag-conditions","tag-country","tag-day","tag-during","tag-forecast","tag-frosty","tag-mostly","tag-new-zealand","tag-news","tag-newzealand","tag-nights","tag-nz","tag-of","tag-parts","tag-starts","tag-sunny","tag-this","tag-weather","tag-weekend","tag-with"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/632611","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=632611"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/632611\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/632612"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=632611"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=632611"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=632611"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
