Brian from Mount Roskill

Temperatures could exceed 30C in some areas across New Zealand, with heat alerts possible for the eastern parts of the country. MetService forecaster Juliane Bergdolt told the Herald the high-pressure system over NZ would bring fine weather during the next two days. She said the sizzling temperatures were forecast to continue for the eastern parts of the North Island - although thankfully nighttime temperatures will drop to the mid-teens.
Around the motu: Masterton is forecast to hit 31C for the next two days, with Hastings also set for 30C+. Inland North Island areas like Taumarunui can expect 30C today and 29C the day after. Auckland is forecast to reach 28C today and 27C tomorrow. Hamilton is set for 29C, Whangamatā 28C, and Rotorua and Taupō could see 27C. In the South Island, the highs for Christchurch, Blenheim and Kaikōura are also expected to range from the high 20s to low 30s.
