2018: New Zealand's Equal-2Nd Warmest Year on Record
New Zealand Climate Summary: 2018 Issued: 8 January 2019 2018: New Zealand’s equal-2nd warmest year on record Temperature Annual temperatures were above average (+0.51°C to +1.20°C above the annual average) across the majority of New Zealand, including much of the North Island as well as the western and southern South Island. A small strip of well above average (>1.20°C from average) temperatures were observed in southern Manawatu-Whanganui. Elsewhere, near average (within -0.50°C to +0.50°C of average) temperatures occurred in parts of southern Canterbury, Otago, small parts of Auckland and the Far North. 2018 was the equal 2nd-warmest year on record for New Zealand, based on NIWA’s seven- station series which began in 1909. Rainfall Yearly rainfall in 2018 was above normal (120-149% of the annual normal) across much of the eastern and upper South Island, as well as parts of Wellington, Wairarapa, Bay of Plenty, northern Waikato, and Auckland. Well above normal rainfall (>149% of normal) was observed in portions of southern Canterbury. Rainfall was near normal (80-119% of normal) for the remainder of New Zealand. Soil moisture 2018 began with below or well below normal soil moisture nearly nationwide, but soil moisture in the North Island and upper South Island gradually increased during January. Widespread heavy rainfall from ex-tropical cyclones Fehi and Gita during February resulted in well above normal soil moisture across most of New Zealand. Near to above normal soil moisture persisted through autumn, with near normal soil moisture widespread during the winter. -
Submission to the Productivity Commission on the Draft Report on Better Urban Planning
SUBMISSION TO THE PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION ON THE DRAFT REPORT ON BETTER URBAN PLANNING 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 The New Zealand Airports Association ("NZ Airports") welcomes the opportunity to comment on the Productivity Commission's Draft Report on Better Urban Planning ("Draft Report"). 1.2 NZ Airports has submitted on the Resource Legislation Amendment Bill ("RLAB") and presented to the Select Committee on the RLAB, and has also submitted on the Proposed National Policy Statement on Urban Development Capacity ("NPS-UDC"). Our members have also been closely involved in extensive plan review processes in Auckland and Christchurch. Such participation is costly and time consuming - but necessary, given the important role the planning framework plays in our operations. 1.3 As discussed in our previous submissions, it is fundamental to the development of productive urban centres that residential and business growth does not hinder the effective current or future operation of New Zealand's airports. 1.4 In our view, the Draft Report does not adequately acknowledge the importance of significant infrastructure like airports in the context of urban planning and the need to effectively manage reverse sensitivity effects on such infrastructure. This is reflected in some of the Commission's recommendations which seek to limit notification and appeal rights and introduce the ability to amend zoning without using the Schedule 1 process in the Resource Management Act 1991 ("RMA"). NZ Airports has major concerns with such recommendations as they stand to significantly curtail the ability of infrastructure providers to be involved in planning processes and have their key concerns, such as reverse sensitivity effects, taken into account. -

December 2006 Climate Summary
NATIONAL CLIMATE CENTRE WEDNESDAY 3 JANUARY 2007 National Climate Summary – December 2006: Rather cool Temperature: One of the coldest Decembers in the last sixty years Rainfall: Well below normal in the north of both islands; above normal in the east, especially Canterbury Sunshine: Sunnier than normal in the north of both islands Wind: More frequent cold southerlies December was unusually cool for the time of year, due to more frequent southerly winds. Temperatures were 2 to 3 °C below normal (making it coldest start to December for many years) throughout New Zealand during the first half of the month, with little change during the last two weeks. For the month, many locations experienced one of their coldest December’s on record. Wellington recorded its coldest December in more than 70 years, while New Plymouth, Wanganui, and Blenheim had their coldest December in at least 60 years. The national average temperature was 13.7 °C (1.9 °C below normal), the lowest for December since 13.4 °C in 2004 and equal with 1946. Rainfall was less than 50 percent (half) of normal in the north of both islands. However, it was quite wet, with at least 200 percent (twice) of normal rainfall, in some eastern parts of the country, especially in Canterbury. A sunny month occurred in parts of Northland, Auckland, Buller, Westland, and Nelson. More anticyclones (‘highs’) predominated in the Australian Bight, extending ridges of high pressure into the South Tasman Sea. Mean sea level pressures were below average northeast of the Chatham Islands. As a result, cold southerlies were more frequent than average over New Zealand. -

January 2006 Temperature
NATIONAL CLIMATE CENTRE WEDNESDAY 1 FEBRUARY 2006 National Climate Summary – January 2006 Temperature: Well below average in the west of the South Island; above average in the east of the North Island Central Otago heat-wave toward the end of the month Rainfall: Well above normal in Northland, inland Bay of Plenty, Taupo, and Southland; well below normal in Horowhenua Soil moisture: Significant deficits in the east of the South Island, and southwest of the North Island Sunshine: Normal or above throughout New Zealand Western South Island temperatures plummeted in January, especially noticeable after one of the warmest Decembers on record. Mean January temperatures were as much as 1.5 °C below average in parts of Westland and Fiordland. They were also below average in several other southern and western South Island regions. Temperatures however, were above average in the east of the North Island. The national average temperature was 17.0 °C, the same as the 1971-2000 normal. A heat-wave occurred in Central Otago toward the end of the month, Alexandra recording maximum temperatures of 36 °C for three consecutive days from the 27-29th, unheard of in their historical record, which commenced in 1930. A mixed pattern of rainfall occurred over New Zealand in January, with relatively high totals in parts of Northland, inland Bay of Plenty, Taupo, and Southland, and comparatively low totals in Horowhenua. Significant soil moisture deficits developed in northern and eastern regions of both Islands until a depression of tropical origin produced substantial rainfall in those regions during 24-25 January. However, high rainfall did not affect the southern and eastern South Island, and significant soil moisture deficits persisted in parts of Canterbury and Central Otago, as well as Manawatu, Wellington, and Wairarapa.
