Welcome to the New Zealand Weather Network

Welcome! The New Zealand Weather network has a focus on learning and developing  meteorology (weather) skills and experience, based on New Zealand's own varied weather conditions.
 
We're a learning hub, where everyone taking part is learning at their own level, and helping others - a true weather community. Explore new skills, deepen existing passions, and get lost in learning about the weather.
 
If you are interested in New Zealands weather join in the discussions, become a representative for your weather region, even make your personal weather station live on our site. Have a hunt around. What you find just might surprise and inspire you!
