WEATHER UPDATE: CHILLY WEEKEND

A slow moving, deep low is now spiralling over the Tasman producing a solid swell which will build overnight moving up the coast on Saturday. Combined with the cold, westerly winds will make for an epic weekend of waves up and down the coast for surf lovers.

The air mass is dry so low humidity levels are expected. The lack of moisture in the air allows the temperature to fall quickly once the sun goes down. On the bright side it also helps with day time heating.

Inland morning frosts will become a feature across the weekend.

There is a significant inland rain event brewing, we’ll check that first thing next week.
