Severe weather warning - a snowy end to the school holidays

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A deep low is expected to move east across central New Zealand overnight Thursday. Strong cold southerlies in the wake of this low are likely to bring snow to low levels over many South Island areas and severe southerly gales to parts of central New Zealand and also Taranaki during Friday. A heavy snow warning is in force for Canterbury and Marlborough.

Heavy snow may disrupt travel in affected areas and could damage trees and powerlines. Cold conditions may cause stress for livestock.

Area: Canterbury and Marlborough south of about Ward.
Valid: 18 hours from 3:00am to 9:00pm Friday
Forecast: Snow is expected to lower to about 300 metres overnight Thursday. During Friday, 15 to 30cm of snow may accumulate above about 500 metres with lesser amounts down to about 300 metres. The snow is likely to be heaviest during Friday morning, and during that time the risk of damage to structures such as powerlines is greatest. The snow is then expected to gradually ease.
