30 MAY
THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE

gales buffeted many districts, with exceptionally violent and destructive southerlies around Wellington. As the centre of the storm moved along the coast towards Dunedin the weather cleared except in Canterbury, Otago and Southland, where the rain became heavier. Flooding was soon reported in parts of Canterbury and snow fell on the high country there.
Pressures remained low over New Zealand and a second centre which developed over the North Island moved south-eastward from the 12th to the 15th. The weather remained unsettled, with bright intervals at times in most districts. Rain was fairly general on the 15th, with some considerable falls in parts of Otago. Wide-spread flooding was reported from the Mataura River in Southland.
On the 16th the depression now lying to the east of Otago moved away, and on the following day an anticyclone moved on to Campbell Island. These 2 days were more settled in most districts. However, there was another fairly general deterioration on the 18th with the passage of a trough of low pressure across the country from north-west to south-east. As this trough moved away to the east during the 19th and 20th, further rain was reported in some areas, especially Canterbury. However, for the next 2 days rain affected mainly the West Coast and northern districts of the North Island as a depression moved southward past western Southland.
On the 23rd a depression crossed the South Island, and the associated trough of low pressure brought general rain. Some heavy falls were reported in Taranaki, with thunderstorms there and in Auckland. As the depression moved away to the east on the 24th a ridge of high pressure extended to the southern half of the South Island from an anticyclone over the Tasman Sea, with fair weather. Further north, cold southerlies set in, with rain soon affecting eastern districts from Christchurch to Gisborne besides Wellington. This occurred as a depression developed east of Auckland and moved slowly south-eastward from the 25th to the 27th.
During the last 3 days of the month conditions were rather more westerly. An anticyclone was centred to the north and pressures were low to the south-west of Campbell Island. A shallow depression developed over the Tasman Sea and associated frontal system extended on to the North Island. Rain was reported first in South-land, Fiordland, and South Westland, soon spreading to most other western districts of both Islands.
