However, that won't last long as mostly sunny and fine weather throughout the country is forecast, with temperatures in the late teens to early 20s.
Auckland is set to reach 20C, and Whangarei, Tauranga and Napier are all in for a high of 21C.
"Anzac Day is looking pretty good overall, with a nice ridge over the country," Marsters said.
The only areas with showers forecast are parts of the South Island's West Coast.
Today a band of showers in western areas from Northland to just north of Taranaki will ease for a fine afternoon.
A weak front is moving up the South Island this morning, producing showers in Fiordland and the West Coast, and a few spots on the east coast.
It will bring a southerly change as it moves up the country, but most showers will be offshore.
"It will weaken as it moves north, bringing a change in wind direction but mostly clouds to western areas," Marsters said.
Fine weather is forecast on the North Island's East Coast from Gisborne to Wellington.
The ridge of high pressure pushing in tomorrow will hang around Thursday, producing settled and generally dry weather for most of the country.
However, another series of fronts is set to move into Fiordland and the West Coast Thursday and Friday.
A weak front should move north over the South Island from the southwest on Friday, as a low pressure system over the Tasman Sea approaches northern New Zealand.
"This low coming over from New South Wales is set to bring wet weather to the west of New Zealand," Marsters said.
"There is also a decent rain band coming onto Fiordland and West Coast, and showers for the rest of the country."
