Mid February: very warm, very dry, & very sunny

Murray from Paraparaumu

I’m sure that comes as no surprise to anyone with only the slightest interest in the weather, but will it continue, I wonder?

February has been similar to January which was also dry and sunny, but was slightly cooler than average. However, February with a daily average temperature of just under 25ºC is running a degree warmer than the forecasts, and the second warmest in 15 years, with only 2016 being slightly warmer.

With no rain at all it’s as dry as 2019 and there has been 11 sunny days with only one with no sun at all.

For some, summer is over at the end of the month (two weeks away), but March with an average temperature of around 22.5 ºC it's still summer in Kapiti.
