Snowfall in the South could disrupt travel and affect livestock
Overnight snowfall could disrupt travel, damage trees and powerlines, and cause stress for livestock, according to MetService. Widespread weather warnings are in place for the south of the country as a front moves northwards up the country, preceded by a strong northwesterly flow and followed by cold southerlies.
Motorists are warned to drive with care and to take chains on the Crown Range, between Queenstown and Wanaka. Queenstown Airport remained open, although flights before 10am were cancelled.
The front had moved over the lower South Island overnight on Sunday, bringing with it heavy rain and snow and it's expected to move slowly northeastwards during Monday. A snow warning is in place for the regions until 3pm Monday.
