Weather by Clouds: Wednesday 24 January
Posted onWED 24
SITUATION
Most shower activity has cleared – but afternoon heating and convergent winds from both sides of Northland generated a line of showers/storms inland this afternoon. The same will occur tomorrow – but should be less pronounced.
The high and the ridge are slow moving – wit SE-NE winds most days.
TODAY
During the day – high pressure will settle west of Northland over the eastern Tasman Sea and wind has shifted to the SW-S.
The S winds this morning will shift left during the day – thermally and also a gradient wind shift. Being fairly cloudy, the thermal pull is not terrific.
More right outside from Brett; inside the breeze will be more left – so you’d expect a right bend in the breeze heading away from the BOI.
