Speaker 1 (00:00):
From the cricket field to the cows shed. It's the
Country Sport Breakfast with Brian Kelly on gold Sport Rono.

Speaker 2 (00:07):
Catching up with Lewis Ferris from the Med Service this morning.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
Morning those, good morning, How are we doing today?

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Very well? Thank you. I had some incredibly mild temperatures, particularly
down south this weekend this week, haven't we.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
Yes, absolutely, we've had a bit of high pressure kicking
the sky is clear, but also some warmer air coming
in and that's a bit of a change to the
south least that we've been dealing with some cold temperatures
around and just a little sneak peak on what I'll
be saying very shortly, those cold temperatures will be returning.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Yeah. I was just going to say, don't get lolded
of false ins of security because there's a winter blast
still to come for the south.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
Yes. Absolutely. Here in Wellington I almost just wearing a
T shirt yesterday, but not quiet and I know this
weekend that will be definitely a layering back up to
keep warm with yes exactly suddenly pushing up both the
country and I mean this week has been mainly high
pressure around keeping things pretty settled, but as we move
into the weekends, things are definitely going to change slow

(01:04):
fush system coming out of the taskment, so that's going
to bring that warmth that moisture with it, but it's
also lining up with a very cold soulely pushing in
from the southern Ocean, which is going to bring that
snow risk around the South End. Again, the Sunday is
mainly focused on the northern half of the South End.
As we move into the new working week, that risk
of heavy snow does extend into the southern parts of

(01:27):
the South und but culd Tire which is are basically
going to be spreading up the country as we move
through the weekend and into next week.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
We've got a test match at eden Park in Auckland
tomorrow night. Is it going to be wet?

Speaker 1 (01:39):
It looks like it definitely that your rain jacket if
you're going along. It does look like the front edge
of that rain is going to arrive more in the afternoon,
but does look like that lingering risk of weather will
extend through game time. Might be lucky, there might be
some dry spells that I mean the ground is going
to be wet. Wait, there's no roof. Yes, I was

(01:59):
just getting a little bit confuse there even for a
second the other So yes, it will be a slipric
conditions for the players, which could I know, make for
some unique gameplay.

Speaker 2 (02:13):
And by the looks of Sunday as well, and there's
quite a lot of MPC rugby action across the country
on Sunday with as well for the North Island in particular.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Yes, yeah, it does look like that rain does linger
through Sunday around actually a good portion of the country.
The eastern parts of the North und will get off
a little bit easier with the sprain coming and from
the west northwest, but it does look like they will
still get some rain also, it does it's going to
be quite breezy with northwest. The one is quite strong

(02:43):
mainly across the north Land as that Sutherly slips up
the south Land.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
So spring hasn't quite sprung yet.

Speaker 1 (02:51):
No, but I think you could almost see this as
a little bit of springy is in terms of fast
moving weather features. But no, I think if you look
at the beginning of the weekend, we're going for a
high of twenty degrees around Hawke's Bay tomorrow, so that
will feel definitely a spring of that sun and there's
more temperatures around, even higher actually for Napier on Sunday

(03:12):
twenty two degrees before that cold air slips in and
they drop steadily as they move into next week.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
There we got a little good to catch up, mate,
have a great weekend

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Easy, We'll do you too,
