    In January and February, we are affected by cyclones in the Pacific Ocean coming close to New Zealand.
    This happens more often in years of 'La Nina' weather patterns in the Ocean. A 'La Nina' started at the end of 2020 and is still with us in 2022.
    Have a think about what sort of weather (humidity, temperature (air and sea), storms) we have been experiencing this summer
    Below are some video clips of the weather forecast around the time of Cyclone Dovi in Feb 2022.
