New Zealand Weather

Posted on September 2nd, 2006 in various by admin

Land of the Long White Cloud they call New Zealand over here and I have to say that is a very accurate description of the weather here. Being now for over 11 years in New Zealand, I learned not to listen to the weather forecast on the news at all. New Zealand does not have a large temperature range, lacking the extremes one finds in most continental climates. However, the weather can change unexpectedly — as cold fronts or tropical cyclones quickly blow in. Having a very narrow land mass and surrounded by 2 oceans the weather is in constant change it seems. You do however get used to it after a while. 

A bit more of a concern is the ozone layer (or the lack of) above New Zealand. In the summer months it is highly recommended not to expose yourself to the sun without any protection. On average it takes about 10 minutes I believe before you have caught a sun burn. New Zealand also has one of the highest rates on skin cancer in the world which is due to the ozone hole expanding in this part of the world. 

Despite all this, I quite enjoy living over here. As I said before, you get used to it.
