    Recreational Marine: Kapiti

    Situation:
    A brisk and unsettled west to southwest flow covers the country, with embedded fast-moving troughs. The unsettled west to southwest flow over the country turns northwest over central and southern New Zealand on Tuesday ahead of a front approaching from the Tasman Sea. On Wednesday, the front moves northeastwards over southern and central New Zealand, followed by a colder and showery southwest flow. On Thursday the front moves across the North Island, and the showery southwest flow spreads over the whole country.
