Forget getting out and about this weekend - Hawke's Bay's sunshine is set to end and heavy rain is due on Saturday evening.
MetService meteorologist Tom Adams says it will start raining tomorrow afternoon, and will continue through the weekend, with the heaviest rain occurring on Saturday evening and lasting throughout Sunday.
"When the wind turns east through east that's when you are going to get it the worst," Adams said.
"That's later on Saturday when that's going to happen, and then through to Sunday."
The rain will be easing just in time to return to work on Monday.
