    Conditions are expected to improve in the South Island, after yesterday's wild weather

    Conditions are expected to improve in the South Island, after yesterday's wild weather


    A severe storm struck parts of the Tasman District before 4pm, and heavy hail blanketed Motueka.

    Sand in Golden Bay turned white from the hailstorm, making it look like a winter wonderland.

    MetService meteorologist Tuporo Masters says the place to be today is Southland.

    He says it's forecast to be a sunny day in the deep south, Queenstown and on the West Coast.
