Mucky weather ahead

Humid temperatures and showers will make for mucky weather in most parts of the country this week.

MetService weather forecaster Gerard Barrow said the main city centres, including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch, would see warm and humid weather throughout the week - including a few showers.

In Auckland, today is expected to be the warmest day of the week, with temperatures in the low to mid-20s. Hamilton will be fine today but with cloudy patches, with highs of around 24C and a low of about 15C. But a few drizzles and showers are expected tomorrow and throughout the week.
