Met Service New Zealand
Weather has the power to disrupt and destroy, yet at its most gentle it can relieve and restore.
Lying within the open oceans, sandwiched between the volatile Tropics and stormy Southern Ocean, Aotearoa New Zealand experiences some of the world’s most changeable weather. Antarctic southerly winds, subtropical downpours, temperate breezes, sweltering sun – we encounter it all.
Whether you’re hanging out the washing, flying a plane, or preparing for a storm, MetService, Te Ratonga Tirorangi, is here to help you plan and prepare to be weather-ready.
