NZ: Heavy rain for parts of the North Island as low moves in Tuesday

Rain is coming into the North Island and brushing some parts of the South Island over the next few days as low pressure from the Tasman Sea moves in.
As always, refer to your local WeatherWatch or RuralWeather rain forecast to drill down deeper locally + use MetService warnings and watches.
The rain bands are “lumpy” and messy and means some areas my have rain heavy enough to cause slips/flooding but others nearby might not.
By this weekend another southerly flow is back into NZ with more winter-like temperatures.

Is this the part where civil defence doesn't take note again???

Climate engineering yet again. I am beginning to realise "all" our weather is manufactured. The amount of trails in the sky over Nelson on Saturday and Sunday turning to high cloud and now rain. You people must think we are all thick.

Phil I really need some off shore wind and swell south of Banks Peninsular so I can pump out some videos for my channel. If you can rustle that up I would be grateful. Also if you can put the sea temp up half a degree that would be appreciated. Thanks, StuWNZ.

Otematata has a population of ruffly 200, it goes on the map but Invercargill population of ruffly 57000 isn't on the map, guess we don't matter👍👍
