This was also the long-time average and compares with 20.3C in 2024. Every day except one reached 20C, so as usual it was definitely a summer month. Our overall mean temperature of 17.4C was the warmest in Central NZ, with the higher-maximum eastern Blenheim and Masterton at the bottom of the table due to their cold nights.
February’s dry weather continued through March, with only a few showers in the third week amounting to around 24mm, half the average. The combined rainfall for the two months was 34mm only 30 percent of average.
March sunshine equivalent to17 days was slightly below average with cloud frequent at both ends of the day, unlike February that was particularly sunny.
In April we can still expect some summery weather, but with an average temperature of around 19C. Also, the end of daylight saving sees a return to brighter, warmer mornings, and It won’t be as dark again until early June, by which time it will be only couple weeks before the days begin to lengthen again.
The thunderhead over Otaki may have delivered a brief shower in the third week.

They may contact you by email, text, or phone, claiming:
🔹 You're owed a tax refund and must provide your bank details to receive it.
🔹 You owe tax and need to pay immediately to avoid legal trouble.
How to stay safe:
✅ Don’t click on links in emails or texts - log in to your myIR account directly.
✅ Check the sender - official IRD emails always end in @ird.govt.nz.
✅ Be cautious with texts - IRD only sends messages from four-digit codes, not
regular phone numbers.
