Parts of the country sweltering under heat alerts
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
Hawke's Bay and Gisborne are sweltering under heat alerts today with temperatures reaching 34 degrees at Napier Airport and 32 degrees in Wairoa. They're not the only regions wilting under warm conditions - Gisborne hit 32.6 degrees this afternoon, and on Sunday new records were set for December temperatures in Tauranga and Whitianga. Warmer ocean temperatures are behind the surge in heat - as marine heatwave conditions develop in the waters off New Zealand. Hawke's Bay Tairawhiti reporter Alexa Cook has more.
