New Zealand Weather Forecast

Quick note about this weather ... Rather than a complex table of weather data, we've tried to simplify things by using the forecast data between the hours and 10am and 4pm, at upper ski area elevations. It's not always going to be perfect, and at present we have a bug or two ...

Remember, it's only a forecast, and in the mountains Mother Nature is constantly trying to catch us out. Always head up the hill prepared for conditions worse than what you expect!
