Monday's resident weather expert says every November is basically the same. From a big-picture point of view our weather patterns across New Zealand tend to slow down more during this month, with often an uptick in high pressure and a downtick in rainfall. Now that we’re into the second week already the long-range forecast shows three things. 1) New Zealand still has most of our weather being westerly driven. 2) We still see regular cold fronts coming into the country. 3) The most important thing to note of all – NZ is going to get more high pressure.

Federated Farmers’ latest banking survey showed that only one in 11 farmers supported banks setting climate change targets. "Farmers simply don’t trust foreign-owned banks to be setting emissions reduction targets. We don’t want or need them," banking spokesperson McIntyre says "We already have emission reduction targets that have been set by the Government, and further targets set by our milk and meat processing companies. Banks should stay out of it."
