Speaker 1 (00:00):
Chris Brendoleno joins us from Newa. Hi, Chris, I haven't
got much time and you haven't gotten much by good
news from a raymise what have you?

Speaker 2 (00:09):
Yeah? Look nah, look, Jimmy, I mean, let's start with
the weekend. There will be some rain for Fjorland. It's
a bit dry there, but not like our friends in
Tedanaki and the Manawatu and the North Island. You'll get some,
you know, So they'll be raining for the Lower North
lower southbound. I beg your pardon, and maybe the odd shower.
Look today tomorrow there'll be some localized showers, maybe a

(00:30):
few downpours over the central North Island. So folks in
central and southern Waikato, that could be some good news,
but it's going to be localized. Then again on Saturday
against spotty showers. Awk going to Northland. Drought conditions in Dargaville,
by the way, so western and southwest Northland is very
dry to drought like. Look, our best chance for rain

(00:50):
is going to be next week, probably Tuesday, Wednesday, Monday
night into early Wednesday. A front's going to move north.
If there can be some moisture, it can kind of
drag down from a tropical cyclone. The coral seed that
would enhance the rainfall, but that looks pretty unlikely. Unfortunately,

(01:10):
it looks like we are going to see a dry
lean for much of the month of March in a
warm link could be a warm, dry March as we
end the summer season, and if we're going to get
any meaningful rainfall, if nothing happens next week looks which
looks unlikely, some areas make it an okay drop of rain,
we may have to wait till late March, Jamie to
get anything meanful at least an opportunity for that.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Well, I guess for a warmed is for. Thank you
very much, Chris Brangolano, enjoy your.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
