I am a New Zealander. Everyday weather in New Zealand means you need to pack a sunhat, sunscreen, a beanie, winter gloves, rain jacket, umbrella, wear a singlet or tshirt under, and pack some spare jandals. Trust me.
Haha very true Krys ;)
4 seasons in 1 day in new zealand, there just saved 10 mins of your life
Haha very true Senpai ;)
@@NZPocketGuide I can remember being on the central plateau in the middle of summer playing in the snow. We weren't even near the mountains.
Stolen from Scotland
YeCannyDaeThat What actually is stolen?
@@estellemelodimitchell8259 He meant NZ stole the 4 seasons in a day from Scotland,
NZ weather has a mind of its own. Because NZ is islands and not a big land-mass, weather is not always predictable, and can be very changeable. Often it is a nice day but there is a freezing wind, so take a pullover or a windcheater. You can get all 4 seasons in one day, it happens often!
Very true Anna, thanks for re-enforcing our point :)
so texas but cold
It is the same here in the UK...the British Isles are Roughly the same distance from the equator and the statement about four seasons in one day can go for us in Britain too❤
Guys love this video and most of your videos which I have watched. Amazing and keep up the great stuff coming 💕
Thanks mate!
i am on headset. i can hear the background music on both ears but when you speak, i can hear your voice only on the left ear. there is no voice in the right ear. i guess you did something wrong about the video
Yes we stuffed up that video's Audio :( Sorry about that!
amazing.. this is what I was looking for !!
Nice one! We're glad that your found it :D When are you off to NZ?
Helpful and well documented video. I really like the thoroughness of your videos! 😊
With weather it depends also where you come from. If you're from India, coming first time to NZ, it will feel pleasant to cold even in summer. Get jackets with you. And if you're only a tourist please don't come in other seasons. If you're coming for work and have to start in months other than summer be prepared for cold wintry weather. Get woollen socks, jersies, jackets, caps, and enough money to invest in a heater and blanket straight away. Warehouse and K-Mart are cheaper for those deals.
Thanks for pitching it Germaine :)
My right ear enjoyed this
Haha yeah the audio got quite stuffed up on that one. Sorry about that Jon... We now publish better videos monthly covering each specific month's weather. If that is of interest to you, check the channel.
Hi from Texas 🇺🇸😎. Good job on the video.
Thanks for the kind words Tim :)
It's always hot in Texas ☀️ and then has those days in winter ❄️
Well it’s been snowing in Queenstown today six weeks out from Christmas
Haha when we say "unpredictable" we're not joking! I wonder if NZ ever had a snowy Christmas? That would be a first!
It's 13 degree Celsius in Auckland right now (21/12/2019), it's far from summer lol, summer astronomically begins in 21th of the month not in the first of the month, i.e here in NZ summer officially started today.
Haha Summer is very much playing hard to get this year. Very cold start!
Summer doesn't exist in NZ
Northland does not actually experience the countries highest temperatures, although it has a higher average temperature, inland Otago and Canterbury have the highest extremes - late 30's to early 40's.
That's very true, thanks for the clarification guys :)
Otago and Canterbury do not have the humidity of the north though. A 30 degree day in Christchurch never feels uncomfortably hot.
Warm and cold
Pretty much ;)
Hey guys, I've been checking your website very often to plan my upcoming solo trip this August. There's something I'm very concern about the weather in August. So far I know, August will be a lot of raining according to acuweather and few blogs. Could you help me to explain what will be the August weather in Queenstown, Dunedin & Christchurch more details please.
We cover the weather in August in great length in this live video -> czcams.com/video/MdfWX94YHc4/video.html this should really help you plan ahead ;)
It's kind of incorrect.
You didn't mention the northwesterly which boosts the temp in the South island and Wairarapa in summer. These temps can rise to the late 30s.
Thank you so much for your input Mark, you rock :)
Here for like 4/5 days and I went from getting sunburnt and the later that same day needing a jacket lol
Yep... 4 seasons in one day is actually true. SO many people think that we are jocking! Thanks for the confirming it in the comment! How long are you in New Zealand for Daniel?
@@NZPocketGuide we are here for a year :) starting in Auckland
Nice one! Do you have a bucket list already?!
@@NZPocketGuide to be honest no lol. Just taking it as it comes. But the 365 shows you have made have really helped with ideas 👌
Haha yeah we tend to review a LOT of activities :) Join us live on CZcams every Sunday 8am NZ time if you have any questions about planning your trip. We're always super happy to help :)
Thanks for the information. But I still don’t know where on the north side of the country the weather is the nicest. 😉 I am looking for lot’s of sun and no cold temperatures. What cities/towns would that be?
Good question! There is more info for you here -> nzpocketguide.com/category/travel-tips/essentials/new-zealand-climate/ I think I'd suggest Paihia :)
Hi Guys! good video, I have a question, how is the best time for a working holliday visa?. I mean, the best season to find a job in New Seland. Thanks and sorry for my english is very basic. Bye!
Thanks for your question, I have added it to our list for our next live video ;)
Christchurch New Zealand receives around 630 millimetres of rain in a year.
Thanks for pitching in mate, you rock!!!
In premiere pro add effect "fill right with left" on all interviews to solve the audio issue
Oh wow, thank you so much for the tip mate!
@@NZPocketGuide :)
Wow, you took until minute 1:45 to actually start the video, that must be some kind of record... I think that many viewers will not stick around this long.
Yeah Jim we have shortened our intro to barely nothing nowadays. We learned a lot since our start. Example -> czcams.com/video/vsEuPLW-o7M/video.html
Say hi to Pam for us!
Hey
I will travelling to New Zealand from 10 dec to 28 dec ! Covering both north n south island !
Can u tell hows da weather there now !
Does it rains a lot ??
At the moment it rains a lot but the weather in December should be a bit better. Check this out -> czcams.com/channels/alswELwoJNKTH32l544jkA.htmlsearch?query=weather+december
The weather in NZ in December is usually very good, more info here -> czcams.com/channels/alswELwoJNKTH32l544jkA.htmlsearch?query=weather+december
It was in the mid thirties (celsius) today and has been for the past few weeks
it's windy there at least in Auckland
If winter, not cold but rainy and dark. If spring, it's the UK's winter. Autumn is just a mixture of both and the Summer is the full 4.
That's a good sum up ;) Thanks for sharing!
Can you lay out the weather month by month.thanks
Sure thing, we have a video for each month right here -> czcams.com/play/PLMXAQO8x57iWfd1ITX999Ef_oRRkRnGym.html and a written recap here -> nzpocketguide.com/category/travel-tips/essentials/new-zealand-climate/
Can we settle in timru. Is there any whether problem there
Great place to live in ;)
Hi guys, Nice and informative video.
I am traveling to New Zealand in the first week of December and will be there for 9 nights. I am covering the South and North islands. From Queenstown, I wish to do either Franz Joseph or Mount Cook and head to Christchurch. Could you help me decide which one to choose?
Thanks in advance!
Check out this video to help you decide ;) -> czcams.com/video/s9Q-GB0l9dQ/video.html
I have always been confused what people from the southern hemisphere mean when they say summer or winter. Do they mean our summer or their summer? Because everyone shows different climate. Add the different location typical weather and I have no idea what's going on. Everyone should just use the months instead of seasons when they talk about climate in their countries. That way travellers know what to pack when flying over.
Haha yeah I agree. On the site we always state months now and try to remember to say them in our videos too but at times we forget haha 🫣
It rarely snows in nz even though its close to antarctica
It does snow a decent amount in our mountain, but you are correct, in most of the populated area it snows very little.
@@NZPocketGuide I live in Auckland and I've nevr seen snow before, unless in mountains
@@ninjapirate123 Yeah I never seen snow in Auckland either mate, except at Snow Planet and at the Ice Bar haha ;)
Trip if a lifetime? New Zealand is actually one of my options for moving out of Usa. Lol
You'll love it! NZ is awesome ;) Hope you find all the info you need on the channel and on our website :)
I moved to the USA from Europe. After living here for some years, I am ready to move somewhere else. 😉 I am also thinking of New Zealand.
I didnt know is so cold in New Zealand 20-30 is not so hot at all
It's not "that" cold. But if you are in need of heat head to the Northland region where it is significantly hotter :)
@@NZPocketGuide is not that cold maybe I exaggerate little bit because I expect some like 30-40 C but seems that New Zealand closer to south pole give effect.I am from Bulgaria here in summers temperature regular 30 gradus and often going 35 but is only for 3 months we got all 4 seasons and winter can be cold like regular under 0, I just not expect summers in Bulgaria to be more hot then hottest time in New Zealand becase you have tropical weather there that why exaggerate. Otherwise you have great country anyway is one of my dream location I still want to visit some day.
Thanks for giving us some context ;)
@@NZPocketGuide Depending on Airflow direction the south island can experience hot temperatures too. And northland isn't the hottest place in new Zealand but due to the high humidity levels it may feel hotter
@@msterrinfromtiktok3194 Very informative Terrin, thanks for sharing :)
Is the weather in New Zealand the same as the weather in the UK?
We're not sure about the UK weather :(
NZ Pocket Guide Okay, no problem 😄
Yes but new zealand gets more rain.
Its good to know about NZ weather and time to visit.. I am planning to go either in October or November.. this year... Please suggest october or november is the best time to visit NZ.. Thanks
Thanks for the kind words :) October would be your best choice :)
@@NZPocketGuide Thanks for your quick reply..appreciated.. I have one more question..shall we plan Milford trek in october mid.. And do we need to do any prebooking for the same..share some link and info for the milford trek
Here you go -> www.backpackerguide.nz/guide-to-milford-sound-and-the-milford-road/ You will need to pre-book the Milford trek as soon as spots gets available and accommodation as soon as you can too. It is one of the busiest area of NZ.
enjoy your life at new zealand
ok.....LOL
Thanks! Will you visit soon?!
NZ has a UK style of climate but is warmer and sunnier.
haha same than the UK but different ;)
Hi Laura and Robin, can you produce another video about weather/climate? The sound on this video is...uhmm... reeeeaaaaallllyyyy bad
Haha yeah it is not the best, we have a month by month weather playlist for you -> czcams.com/video/ufdCRUPrW6E/video.html
@@NZPocketGuide Great :D
Four seasons in one day. That’s us.
Haha, definitely not a saying!
Here in India during summer we have 48°celcius while in winter 0° sometimes it might drop it -2 °c we 😂😅.. We have extreme clime due to of our geography
Oh wow! That's quite a difference!!!
@@NZPocketGuide I am not understanding that New Zealand is nearby Antarctica and it is the coldest place in the world even it is colder than our northern hemisphere arctic but still in New Zealand temperature rarely drop up to 0 while if we talk about only plain snow rarely occur🤔🤔😕
@@devrajsharma34 Haha it is a complex topic :) You may want to read up on weather patterns and ocean impact on climate :)
@@NZPocketGuide ooh,I understand.By the enjoy your summer,atleast I know that season are opposite in these two hemespher 😁☺😝
@@devrajsharma34 Haha yeah and it is early morning for us now. We will be live on CZcams in 15min, come in the chat if you want to talk about the weather :)
Nz is better or canada for a mild cold loving and career in sports and a crime less requiring person??
You may want to watch this video to learn more about NZ and make a choice -> czcams.com/video/YvWcbi6jXDA/video.html
@@NZPocketGuide thanks
All four seasons in one day is what our weather is like lol
haha so it won't feel different to you :) Where are you from Gemaa?
New zealand lol
Haha well played ;)
Might be informative if your sound wasn’t so random. Rt is so loud, left is barely audible at times and the music drowns it all out
Thanks for the super honest feedback Gloria, our newer videos have much better audio now :)
Aotearoa New Zealand has 4 season's in one day haha
That's so true!💕
is it windy in Tauranga area todays??
It depends on the day :)
From a kiwi to much stuffing around and a competitive sound track
Thanks for the honest feedback team :)
Looks like you guys put up a nice video , but I couldn’t watch it all the way to the end because of the background music, way too loud!!!
Thanks for the great feedback mate :) We now use way lower music for all our videos so you should be good :) Maybe check some of our other weather related videos here -> czcams.com/play/PLMXAQO8x57iUWM7XNLKna8RznoJGp4xCi.html
Hello how are you
Heya :)
You said 50 instead of 15
Ooop's sorry about that :( Thanks for pointing it out :)
That isn’t NZ in thumbnail
Are you sure? We used a zoom in of the middle of the South Island if I am correct :)
NZ Pocket Guide Oh sorry it looks like Norway 😂
Haha it's the fault of the close up picture, not yours ;)
Guys accent is not so easy to understand. 🤔
Sorry about that :( In our latest videos Robin's French accent is less bad :)
The weather forecast is often wrong 😂😂
Haha you mean "all the time wrong"!
It's very easy, Never ever listen to our weather forecast, They are the most useless people in NZ job wise, As our weather is unpredictable, 10% of the year is fully sunny skies and the other 90% is well a mix of cloud, rain and a lot of storms, Also be prepared to legit experience all seasons in a single day or even a single hour, And there is never a best season to visit NZ, As i said 10% of the year is clear skies, 5% of those clear skies which is normally around mid December - early January and then the other 5% spread throughout the rest of the year, And prepare for the humidity to feel like a tropical rainforest, Pretty much our entire years weather in one comment.
haha very true :)
I am sorry but the man sounds like French accent.
Hey does! But he has been living in NZ for over 15 years now :)
When the man speaks I can NOT understand most of what he says.
Sorry about that mate, in later videos I learn to slow down a bit so people can understand me :(
The man sounds like a French accent. And I have to rewind video a few times but I think we are just not used to hearing it often.
Are you guys new Zealanders I am
Yeah we are :)
Ok to visit but Iv been here 15 years, Im over the place the weather stinks!!
Haha it changes often indeed :)
Almost 2 mins intro!!!! insane! wtf
We have changed that in newer videos. Thanks for the honnest feedback!
Did you have to add such obnoxious music
Yeah this was one of our early video and we have many regrets haha! Our newer videos are less... "bad" for lack of a better word...
Too many numbers and details average viewers do not need!
Tired of watching it after seconds minute
Thanks for your super honest feedback Ala ;) It is always hard to please everybody so we end up having to much info in the video haha. In the same playlist we do have the weather in NZ month by month if that is more digestible for you :)
You all talked a lot of irrelevant things other than the weather. 👎 is my rating.
Thanks for your very honest feedback :)
