Announcer:

The weather forecast for today is cloudy and generally overcast, with a shower or two later today. Winds will be light and from the south east. We are heading for a top temperature of 19 degrees.

The weather outlook for the weekend is rain early on Saturday but clearing in the afternoon. It will be a mild day with a top of 21 degrees.

The weather on Sunday should be fine and sunny. That’s good news for all you people planning barbecues or a trip to the beach. The expected top temperature for Sunday is 25 degrees.

At the moment in the city the temperature is only 16 degrees, that’s four degrees below average for this time of the year.

Don’t forget that umbrella if you are out on Saturday morning!

Handing you back to the news desk for more updates on the crisis in New Zealand.
