    Recreational Marine: Bay of Islands
    Marine Weather Situation and Forecast issued at 0337hrs Sunday 19-Oct-2025 by MetService

    Situation:
    A couple of fronts move north across New Zealand today followed by a narrow ridge of high pressure, then another front approaches Fiordland from the west late Sunday. On Monday, the front off Fiordland moves northeast over the South Island. On Tuesday high pressure over the North Island shifts east as a front moves over the Cook Straight, weakening as it does so. Showery westerlies follow the front, affecting the western and southern areas of the South Island. On Wednesday, a narrow ridge spreads across the country and a new front approaches the western areas of the South Island from the Tasman Sea late in the day. On Thursday, that front moves over the south island ending the day over the central North Island.
