On the 8th and 9th an anticyclone was centred near Tasmania and a trough of low pressure crossed New Zealand, with a small depression forming to the east. Cool southerlies predominated once again, with general rain, mainly light. During the next 2 days the anticyclone was centred over the Tasman Sea while pressures were low to the north-east of the North Island. In the south-easterlies there was considerable rain in Gisborne on the 10th, and on the following day light showers affected the northern half of the South Island and eastern districts of the North Island.
The period from the 12th to the 19th was one of mainly settled weather. From the 12th to the 16th an extensive belt of high pressure covered the South Tasman Sea and the South Island and extended out towards the Chatham Islands, while pressures were low to the north-east of the country. During this period the weather was unsettled over eastern Northland with frequent showers in the easterlies. For the next 3 days the anticyclone moved slowly north-eastward over New Zealand. Showers were reported at times over the southern half of the South Island, and Fiordland had considerable rain on the 19th.

Pressures were comparatively low over New Zealand on the 20th and 21st, with a shallow low pressure centre over the country and one also over the Tasman Sea. The weather was unsettled over the North Island and parts of the South Island with light rain at times. There was a temporary improvement on the following day but the weather deteriorated again on the 23rd and 24th as a shallow depression passed through Cook Strait and the associated trough of low pressure crossed New Zealand. General rain was reported, with some considerable falls in parts of the North Island.
On the 25th an anticyclone extended over New Zealand from the Tasman Sea but conditions remained rather unsettled in the easterlies in some northern districts, with light showers at times. The anticyclone remained centred over the northern Tasman Sea, and for the last 4 days of the month the weather was settled over the whole country.
