Description:

After relentless downpours across the North Island for most of the year, the weather in Aotearoa is about to take a rapid turn.  

Meteorologists are predicting that we will soon see El Niño conditions take hold, bringing warm, dry weather. 

But those rejoicing about the prospect of a hot summer might want to put the cork in the champagne and reflect on what this actually means. 

So what’s headed our way, and what all-time records are likely to be broken this summer? Could dry conditions lead to environmental complications we just aren’t prepared for? 

NIWA meteorologist Ben Noll joins Damien to explain the rapid weather change headed our way.
