February’s Weather

Murray from Paraparaumu

Along with most places in Central New Zealand, February 2026 in Kāpiti was its fourth summery month. It was sunny and dry although slightly cooler than usual.

Our daily average maximum temperature was 22.2℃, over a degree cooler than average, being the lowest in over 10 years. February 2025 was similarly cooler, as is this summer generally. As usual, eastern areas of Central NZ averaged a degree warmer, but our overall average mean temperature was again the warmest at 18.1℃.

Our equivalent of 18.25 sunny days was average for February. Rainfall of about 87mm was above the average of 60mm, but it mostly fell in two events separated by two long dry periods, with the second in the middle of the month associated with a strong wind storm that brought a much-needed 40mm.

As our March average temperature is 21.6℃ the chances of getting a fifth summery month are pretty high. Rainfall averages 50mm, but as we are getting more than the historic average these days, it’s likely we will exceed this.
