November’s Weather: a Summery Month
Along with most places in Central New Zealand and other places, Kāpiti enjoyed summery weather during November, with temperatures more like those usually expected in December. It was also dry with above average sunshine.
Our daily average maximum temperature was 20.7℃. Only four times in the last 15 years has the November average exceeded 20 degrees, the last being in 2022. This temperature was around 1.5 degrees above the longtime average.
Rainfall of around 80mm was a little above average, but it mostly fell as two events, separated by up to two dry weeks.
Sunshine amounting to the equivalent of 18 days was above that usually experienced in December.
It seems the forecasted La Niña summer may have already arrived in November, so I guess we can expect December to be similar to what we had in November, with perhaps less wind and an average temperature of around 22 ℃.

ACCOMMODATION REQUIRED
Our grandson (20) recently moved to Kapiti from Taranaki and is looking for accommodation. Anything considered.
He describes himself as clean and tidy, friendly but a bit reserved and quiet.
I would add trustworthy and family orientated.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
Free collection of broken chest freezer.
I have a chest freezer which is broken. I was wanting to know if there is anyone out there who does collection of white goods free.
