Almost too much weather

If you like weather then NZ is definitely the place to be. Earthquake and hundreds of after shocks; enough snow to collapse the Invercargill Sports Stadium (seriously); 300km/hr wind gusts (that was the highest, most of us just got 100-140km/hr breezes); driving rain and the attendant flooding and land slips. All up perfect rugby conditions really and Taranaki won against Canterbury in these perfect conditions on Saturday (Yeah!).

The earthquake woke me up but I slept through a storm at 2am this morning that tore up trees and took off roofs. This has lead to high seas and a very active Wind Wand which apparently will continue well into the weekend.
