Mid January: Sunny, very Dry & Cool
The New Year cloud has mostly gone and the weather in Kāpiti is now sunny and very dry. And the weeks of temperature-reducing southerlies may be on the way out, with 24ºC yesterday.
Kāpiti has been the warmest place in central New Zealand and one of the few that can claim January to have been a summer month to date. However, Paraparaumu has averaged only 20.5ºC and Waikanae 20.2 (more like November). The longtime average is 23.1ºC.
After a little light rain over the first few days of the month there’s been no rain at all, so rainfall is well below average, and over the last week with sun virtually all day, every day, sunshine is now average for the month.
Poll: Are our Kiwi summer holidays helping us recharge, or holding the economy back? ☀️🥝
There’s growing debate about whether New Zealand’s extended Christmas break (and the slowdown that comes with it) affects productivity.
Tracy Watkins has weighed in ... now it’s your turn. What’s your take? 🤔

10.1% Yes!

"Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
I think he's from the CIA."
