The MetService is also expecting Wanaka to reach 30degC today and temperatures are forecast to hover between 20degC and 30degC for the next 10 days across Otago. "The high is hanging in there over the North Island. It's basically remaining pretty fine for most of the country today with little bits of cloud here and there. There may be a shower in inland North Island [central high country] if you're lucky. The usually wet West Coast might receive some rain tomorrow, the first it would have had in about two weeks.
