July's Weather: Semi-Drought Ends

July in Kāpiti was a little cooler and cloudier than average, and the prolonged dry spell of the last six months continued right up to the end of the month when we had around 40mm of rain. The first signs of spring were evident in many gardens, as is usual by the end of July.

July in Kāpiti was a little cooler and cloudier than average, and the prolonged dry spell of the last six months continued right up to the end of the month when we had around 40mm of rain. The first signs of spring were evident in many gardens, as is usual by the end of July.

Our daily average maximum temperature was 13.6C, compared with the longtime average of 13.8 and last July’s 14.1. The overall mean temperature was 10.2C (10.3C last year). Kāpiti’s coldest day of the year to date, with a maximum of only 11.1C, occurred on the last day of the month, but the several light frosts were all recorded early in the month.

The equivalent of 13.5 sunny days was two fewer than average. For most of July it seemed we would again experience below average rainfall, but steady rain on Tuesday 30 delivered around 40mm, the heaviest episode of the year, pushing the total for the month to around 90mm, slightly above the longtime average.

August should see a slight rise in both temperatures and sunshine, with spring’s presence becoming even more evident in our gardens and countryside.

BEWARE: Scammers impersonating Police taking advantage of vulnerable, older people

The Team from New Zealand Police

Police are aware of reports emerging overnight where people have received a phone call from someone claiming to be a Police officer.

The officer will claim to be from a particular department, tell you that you have been a victim of fraud or scam, and begin to try and obtain further financial information from you.

People have been directed to go to the bank and withdraw money for evidence of the scam.
This is a scam – no legitimate Police officer will ever ask you to hand over money for any reason.

Overnight we have had five instances of this being reported, people need to be vigilant.
Enquiries into reports of scams of a similar nature received last week remain ongoing.

We appreciate these scammers are convincing, but New Zealand Police will never contact you and ask you to withdraw money. New Zealand Police will also never contact people seeking their banking details, card numbers, PIN or passwords.

Older members of our community are being targeted and Police urge anyone with elderly or vulnerable relatives to make them aware this activity is a scam.

There are instances where legitimate Police officers will contact you as part of their duties.

Remember:
• Police will never ask for details about your bank cards, PIN or passwords over the phone.
• Trust your instincts.
• If something doesn't feel right, or is too good to be true, it probably is.
• If you are uncertain, ask for the officer’s details.
• Hang up, contact 105 and request the officer to contact you.
• Police aren’t in the business of offering prize money.

If you are in the unfortunate position of being a victim of a scam, please report the matter to Police.

Take the chance to upskill yourself on scam awareness, check for further information on the Netsafe website: netsafe.org.nz...
