Inflation and what we can do about it.

Charles from Lynmouth - Moturoa

I appreciate some of it is imported or caused by covid but a good proportion is the result of direct or indirect Govt. policy or increases like the massive electricity escalation that has just been applied . Local authorities do not escape either so come neighbours give us your ideas.

Office for Seniors

Local weather forecasts and recommendation.

Charles from Lynmouth - Moturoa

Has anybody noticed how bad the weather forecasts for Taranaki are? For the last couple of years I have tended to look at the weather maps in the Daily News as they tend to be more accurate.

For the last couple of years I have tended to look at the weather maps in the Daily News as they tend to be more accurate. By comparison the forecasts we see on the national stations tend to be over emotive and more often than not wrong. Do they know where Taranaki is? I have recently started looking at the NIWA website. I would highly recommend this. After a couple of months I have found it hardly ever wrong and it is far more descriptive. I am aware our mountain can cause local variations but this cannot explain the discrepancies. in my opinion. Hi Neighbours - what do you think?
