All of the watches and warnings that covered the motu as the recent rainy front passed over the country have now elapsed and more seasonal, lower temperatures are coming in its wake.
MetService metereologist Devlin Lynden told Stuff there is still a showery southwest flow over the country and that may still bring a few thunderstorms for western parts of the North Island through Saturday morning, being confined to the west coast from Taranaki to Raglan after 11am and into the afternoon.
There is a risk of hail in that area, he said.
Elsewhere, there is still a chance of heavy showers but the general trend is an easing of the rain that slammed into the country in the past two days.
Sunday should be fine in the North Island and for the mainland too, except for cloud and the possibility of showers on the West Coast.
