Warm weather forecast for final month of Autumn
Unseasonably high temperatures are forecast to keep New Zealand warm for the last month of autumn.
The warmer than average weather should last for at least the next three weeks.
The previous highs for May included 24.6C in Auckland in 2011, 22.4C in Hamilton in 2004, and a staggering 27.3C in Christchurch in 1978.
According to Weather Watch, the outlook for the rest of winter is similar to last year.
Niwa says the outlook for winter was for above-average temperatures but average or below average rainfall.
