Potential storm for North Island on Saturday - will it or won’t it?

- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Low pressure is going to dominate NZ’s weather for weeks ahead by the looks of it, with a storm potentially affecting the north-eastern North Island on Saturday.
The low has the potential to rapidly power up and even reach equivalent power and air pressure to a Category 1 or 2 tropical cyclone. But it’s going to be zipping past by the looks of it - and as we discuss in the video today, severe weather is not yet locked in for the eastern North Island.
Elsewhere more cloud, showers and rain - but large dry and calm areas too, so fog may still be an issue especially with higher humidity.
We have your detailed New Zealand forecast through to Tuesday next week.
Good point about NIWA Phil
Afternoon chief.hay I'm really sorry you have to keep apologizing for people with a lack of understanding about the weather.In my opinion weather watch is the most comprehensive and informed channel for weather iv seen yet.its also extremely accurate and with a legend host makes for a great watch thank you mate your a Champion.
I agree about your Niwa comments. I was an Airline Pilot for many years, and were able to get METARS and TAF's for almost every city in the world for free. but NOT New Zealand, unless I paid for it. Greedy NIWA was the cause.
Don’t worry about NIWA mate, their forcasts are crap, no credibility as far as we’re concerned.
Your forcast is the best
The graphics and commentary are crystal clear to me. Good job Phil and the prep team.
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for such an informative commentary every time for our weather
Never mind the moaners Phil. Your forecasts are the best, so keep up the good work you and the team do so well
Thank you very much :)
Best site for weather analysis ..
Very kind, thank you !
All well said Phil, love your presentation
Well said on NIWA; you now have my 100 per cent support.
Nice understandable commentary. Many thanks 👍
You explain it better than NIWA anyway .😀
Good on ya, Phil for having the freedom of speech to give that little 'shout out' to NIWA hahah!! :-)
Great explanation and analysis.
Loved ya jab at NIWA 😂 well done sir tell it like it is
Especially if it comes down easy,thank you for the updates.
Well all I can say is, thank goodness we have the WeatherWatch team to keep us informed of what the weather is doing. Will be watching your next video with interest regarding this deepening low on the way.
I absolutely love watching and understand perfectly from your descriptions what you’re explaining. Great presentation 👏🏼🙏🏼
Thanks Phil. Love your style and your forecasting. Have been watching you for the past year or more. I cant stand the news weather forecasts now. You are the only one I watch. Great work !!! :)
Awesome feedback, thank you so much!
Totally agree with you Phil about NIWA, I get very annoyed when the Herald sometimes put up something from NIWA, 9 out of 10 times there so wrong, all I can say is you and your team do a great job, so long may It continue
Hello! Have a nice day.
Bloody NIWA eh? Why am I noot surprised 😁 Anyway, Cheers for the update!
My house was flooded in Milford auckland and I live in fear everytime it rains. This is where i go for trusted reports. Many thanks for your good work
Thanks from Rotorua :)
Doing great work. Just the real information with none of the agenda
Thank-you very much for these long range forcasts clearly and in just enough detail that a mere simpleton as myself can comprehend.
Always informative, thanks Phil and team.
Thanks for calling out NIWA.
Nice to hear your honesty on the useless funding by NIWA. I think that organisation has just had it's legs cut off so let's hope some more helpful informational modelling will be in the future of our weather forecasting in nz
Cheers. As a student pilot only able to fly free of cloud, this ‘mess’ has been extremely annoying for the past couple weeks and next few weeks 🙄
Really appreciate this service which you provide free. Maybe you could get into providing an unbiased News service, just needs to last 10-15min. It would be a refreshing change compared to the hour of BS we have to put up with from the main channels.
Great forecast and by the looks could be good surf for those up North 🏄🏻♀️🌊💖
You guys do such a great job keep up the work.
Thanks heaps, really do appreciate the support :)
Thank you Phil 😊
Thank you 🎉
As long as you are giving us some informative weather reports, regardless whether the future predictions are right or not I'm fine with it. Also never knew that you had to buy weather information from NIWA, what a pity to be honest.
Thank you from Whangarei
Dude! Thanks for that!
I have learnt so much from your weather forecast report. Tena koe from me in Malabar Sydney . You are miharo. I must look up what or who NIWA is. LIVED IN AUSTRALIA SINCE 1976.
Niwa is like BoM in Aussie, but unlike BoM they are aggressively commercial - using tax funded/owned assets to compete against the very people that fund their existence.
Good on ya Phil
Tha k you for that nugget of information 😊
Weather is fascinating stuff, and you do a great job of breaking it down for us. More education you give the more we will understand. Nullschool who make the maps have a key on their website, so maybe point people over there if people want to know what the colours mean.
Good point about the key!
So Kiwi’s fund NIWA. Well well well, thanks for the info Phil. I’m on the way now with my placards. Only if it’s fine. lol
that is very helpful to understand. thanks.
your such a good weather presenter mate. Another point I read recently about Niwa, is how they are now giving daily forecasts, which is quite different to what metservice issue. Interesting that tax payers are paying for both metservice and Niwa and they aren't even giving the same forecast.
I love your weather 👍👍👍
Thank you very much :) Phil
Thank you.
Since when I was frozen in Torrington NSW 2371, I am looking forward to those bright red and orange colors?
Hey buddy how are you hoping it rains badly on friday. Free community work day off lol.
It's 6pm and raining here in Te Puke badly.
Don’t worry Phil
:)
Another great forecast!~ maybe you should do the same as Niwa, sell your info, its the best by far!
Thanks - we do try to sell! But the Government buys most of the data in NZ so they buy it off themselves and aren't interested in lowering costs, or being more accurate, or having more services for the public. It's just a non-transparent an old boys club making money and/or power for themselves.
so sad to hear that about niwa, I've been using this channels weather for so long now as It gives the best possible big picture idea of what could happen for weather, it was crazy helpful during our te araora walk. Crazy there isn't some form of rules where they have to give out the data to nz based companies
Just sharing😊...seen the news in Australia in Queensland was windy, and a lot of people in another area experienced snow and they were absolutely delighted...enjoy watching the weather😊....stay on point, thank you
Haha. Love ya honesty 😂 that was gold about the tax etc 👍
NIWA is great - just go the polar opposite to their forecast and you're about spot on! Between their top-heavy burden on the taxpayer, their penchant for importing presenters, their competing with the good old NZ Met Service, and the fact their wings are long overdue for a good clipping (or disbandment) to get them back to their core function as in the DSIR days, won't be a moment too soon. Good on you (and thank goodness!) Phill, for your forecasts
Many thanks for the support - and the understandng of NIWA!!
So, snow skiing in Queenstown, if budgie smugglers
Mate love your style and knowledge of your craft
Uk and American maps are good
what a great Chanel
Thank you Simon :)
Your forecasts are the best, thank you but I too do not like the yellow blue map, too much like a child's finger painting. The isobars tell the high/low/wind story in other graphic displays.
Whereas I think the isobars look like a kid has drawn it and the colourised MSLP (air pressure) maps make it very clear where the low pressure starts and ends. :)
Designed to be confusing these days .. they love it.. how much did NIW-A sell before Gabrielle .. that is quite alarming or are we really surprised .. keep up with Honest and True for us plebs 👀
Sunny hear in Rockhampton. Been like that for days .while in holiday this month from nz
Haters going to hate, that means your doing the right thing. Keep the high level education going hard guys.
Just found your channel. Clear presentation. Sick and tired of TVNZ weather reports you got a new sub.
The fact that you present alternative EU and US models is not just a good discussion point its bloody good science reporting. Most people are expecting "absolutes" when uncertainty and statistics are key functions in weather modelling. thanks.
Also i loved your snipe at NIWA having worked for them during the late 1990s i couldnt agree with you more. Their corporate inbred arrogance and exceptionalism was overwhelming i didnt last long there. Having started with the DSIR the culture shock and yuppy "science" mentality at NIWA was intolerable.. it kinda felt like i was working for the Gordon Ghecho of NZ science.
The CRI public science institution as handed down from the DSIR was literally thrown in the rubbish bin where peer reviewed high quality science was not the priority .. only profit .. as literally yelled at me once by my boss..
Take everything out of NIWA with suspicion and a grain of salt..
Our weather here in NZ is very changeable...you just don't know what ya gonna get
That's for sure!
NIWA got some pretty flash Silverado’s though
Don't trust NIWA after gabrielle. 😊
It's the politics of weather Phil, all good.
It sure is! :)
I see NIWA saying something about the polar vortex that will bring cold weather to the country.
They said this a few years ago and nothing happened here. Niwa is really bad at hyping everything into dramatic stuff. If our winter is warmer than average than surely colder blasts would reset our weather to more normal, rather than out of the ordinary! (even if what is happening around Antarctica isn't normal).
I don't no why these idiots can't understand yor maps..thier plane n simple.
GREAT JOB THNX !!
Year...I can hide in the Calm of the Eye of the Storm that never Blowed Away...Scott Weiland...
Any recommendations for a good snow forecast Site?
Try NZ snow dashboard (BETA version) dashboard.weatherwatch.co.nz/snow
Well that's hilarious...
We pay for NIWA..they take our money and pocket it for themselves and America and Europe provides our weather forecast?
Go NZ what a joke
Thanks for the coverage you do an amazing job even if it does come from overseas 😅😅😅
Yep :(
I authorise my weather tax money to be diverted to Phil
Glad to hear your politicle view point. Theres a lot going on that needs to be discussed. Our government and it agencies have been ripping New Zealanders off for decades. I think its time to abolish the government and go back to local town governance. Where only the best are voted in and if they go corrupt then they get the bar room justice.
Sounds like niwa is a traditional kiwi institution then haha
Nothing "natural" about the wrather systems around New Zealand .
C'mon ,becone a whistleblower on the weather manipulation.
Save yourself ,before you are judged guilty with the rest .
Everyone who believes in this isn't open to being challenged. We've asked for NZ based evidence (not a photo, actual evidence). No one in 20 years can do it, other than abuse us for not agreeing with them or providing some facebook link or photo of a cloud. None of that is evidence, it's theory.
To be honest with you... good mention on NIWA/NATO imperialism but, it's about time we dropped the climate change clown show dystopia innit? Aye...
We're weather forecasters, so climate change isn't really part of our daily brief.
Yeah, thanks for the confusing constantly changing never spot on weather mate. Taken about a month to realise you're just another stooge there to confuse and misdirect. Hope you're proud of yourself, I'm sure mum and dad are beaming with pride!
Huh ?!?! It's a forecast mate. It's not a freaken bus timetable
My elderly parents are especially proud that we're NZ's largest forecasters against two tax funded forecasters you help pay for. You don't pay for us. Fun fact: THE WEATHER IS CONSTANTLY CHANGING.
Thanks heaps niwa🤐
