HEATING-UP 2
The daily average maximum temperature over the last six days in Kapiti was 27.5 degrees, with the highest being 29.5º on Monday evening, around 5.00pm that I also recorded in my garden. The official thermometers in Waikanae Park recorded 28.8 and the airport 27.8.
Over the last 10 years it seems temperatures above 29 degrees have only occurred three times previously; 30º in Feb 2022, 31º in Jan 2019 and 30º in Jan 2015.
The humid, thundery weather over the country has also brought heavy squally showers, particularly to inland areas, but fortunately Kapiti benefitted from a couple of these coming in from the north-west on Monday and Tuesday mornings, delivering around 18mm in total.

Landscape Builders
Hi Neighbors,
Just wanting to share a recent project we have completed for a really nice retired couple at Paraparaumu Beach. What made this project unique is that a lot of recycled materials were incorporated into the project, which kept in touch with the homeowners’ vision. We worked with them to create a tailor-made plan, and the results were amazing. We were grateful to be a part of this process.
Some highlights:
Custom bamboo planter box with inbuilt seats, creating a uniform structure with the deck. This is a lovely large structure which we are excited to see evolve as it gets planted out.
Custom garden shed built to meet the requirements of the high-wind/sea zone, but also clad with recycled palings. This was purposed as a planting and propagating shed, with polycarbonate roofing to allow natural light to enter.
Bamboo deck and stairs leading into another planting zone, Linking the back Area to the front.
We are qualified builders who love landscaping. We can offer decking, digger services, concrete, fencing, planters, and more. If you have a project we could help you with, please get in touch.
Thanks,
Joe
