Support our 20th anniversary fundraiser to help more migrants and former refugees
Waka Kotahi recommends that drivers need at least 120 hours of supervised driving practice before they are ready to sit their restricted test - that's two hours of driving per week for just over a year. This is difficult for many migrants and refugees, as the only time they can practice is when they have a lesson - that’s why the Migrant Action Trust runs the Puketāpapa Community Driving School. Help us give the gift of independence for more solo mothers and former refugees. Give a little and share today: Migrant Action Trust's 20th Anniversary: givealittle.co.nz...
Sweltering summer temperatures are ahead with 30C for parts of the North Island today
Temperatures could exceed 30C in some areas across New Zealand, with heat alerts possible for the eastern parts of the country. MetService forecaster Juliane Bergdolt told the Herald the high-pressure system over NZ would bring fine weather during the next two days. She said the sizzling temperatures were forecast to continue for the eastern parts of the North Island - although thankfully nighttime temperatures will drop to the mid-teens.
Around the motu: Masterton is forecast to hit 31C for the next two days, with Hastings also set for 30C+. Inland North Island areas like Taumarunui can expect 30C today and 29C the day after. Auckland is forecast to reach 28C today and 27C tomorrow. Hamilton is set for 29C, Whangamatā 28C, and Rotorua and Taupō could see 27C. In the South Island, the highs for Christchurch, Blenheim and Kaikōura are also expected to range from the high 20s to low 30s.
