November rainfall maps

Kristi Neighbourly Lead from Tikipunga

Posted by Northland Regional Council

🌧️ November rainfall maps
November was WET. Another damp and muggy month.
🌡️ Daily maximum temperatures were relatively constant, with daily highs most days sitting in the low to mid 20s and a few days going to 25 degrees. In central Whangārei, temperatures never went below 10 degrees.
⬆️ The highest monthly total was at Hātea Glenbervie Forest HQ, where 425mm was recorded.
⬇️ On the low side, 107mm was recorded at Kai Iwi Lakes.
November in Northland usually produces an expected rainfall of around 78mm. With the average accumulated total being 241mm, this is 314% of what we would expect! (over 3 times the expected November rain)
