Auckland weather live
On this page you can follow the weather in Auckland in real time: current temperature and feels-like, wind and gusts, humidity, pressure, cloud cover, dew point and chance of rain, refreshed every few minutes. The hourly and seven-day forecasts help with everything from the commute to a day by the water. Auckland sits on a narrow isthmus in the north of New Zealand, surrounded by harbours and the sea, and the ocean strongly shapes its mild, humid climate.
Auckland's climate
Auckland has a warm temperate, oceanic climate with a subtropical feel, kept mild and humid by the surrounding ocean. Summers, from December to February, are warm and humid rather than scorching, with plenty of sunshine and occasional thunderstorms, while winters are mild, wet and changeable, with frost very rare in the city. The weather is famously variable: because Auckland lies in the path of weather systems from the Tasman Sea and the subtropics, conditions can shift quickly between sun, cloud and showers, and the city is known for being windy. Rainfall is spread throughout the year, with the wettest, cloudiest period in winter, though showers can occur in any season. The ocean keeps temperatures moderate, with small extremes between summer and winter, and high humidity is a constant feature. The two harbours and hilly terrain create local variations in wind and cloud across the city.
Air quality and UV in Auckland
The page also shows air quality (US AQI, PM2.5, PM10, ozone, NO₂) and the UV index. Frequent sea winds usually keep the air clean and well ventilated, though calm days may raise pollutant levels. New Zealand's clear skies and southern latitude make for strong sun, so the UV index is often very high in summer; together with sunrise, sunset and day length, sun protection is especially important.
