Daily Weather in New Zealand



My country’s capital city is Wellington. My 3-day forecast will cover the following days: Tuesday 11/4, Wednesday 11/5, and Thursday 11/6. The forecasted high for the first day is 57 degrees F and the forecasted low is 47 degrees F with 40% precipitation. The forecasted high for the second day is 54 degrees F and the forecasted low is 48 degrees F with 50% precipitation. The forecasted high for the third day is 53 degrees F and the forecasted low is 48 degrees F with 80% precipitation. The average pressure over the 3-day period was 30.05 inches. The pressure stayed the same over the 3-day period without any major changes. The average wind speed over the 3-day was 16.7 mph with the wind speed increasing over the 3-day period.
            In the satellite image below, it shows that there are clouds in the area, but are not directly over Wellington. There are mostly low cold clouds shown as the color blue with some low warm clouds shown as the color grey. There is no precipitation happening in Wellington or anywhere in New Zealand from what the map shows. Just north of Wellington is Belmont Regional Park and to the east is East Harbour Regional Park. There is a large lake more to the east of Wellington called Lake Wairarapa that leads into the Ruamahanga River that begins more north of the lake.

            New Zealand is located in an area of low pressure with 1016 mb. Moving West of New Zealand are higher pressures of 1024 mb. In this regional map, it shows a cold front just north of Wellington. Also, there is a stationary front northeast of New Zealand. This is a front with warm and cold airs that is moving slow or not moving at all.

            In this map of Australia, you can see New Zealand at the bottom right. Just west of New Zealand is an area of high pressure. It also shows the same stationary front from the other map that starts from Australia and continues to New Zealand. All the areas of low pressure are over land while the areas of high pressure are over the ocean.
