Whats the weather like in New Zealand?
February and March are late summer and early fall in New Zealand, where the seasons are reversed from the northern hemisphere. In the north, we’re likely to get clear, sunny weather. (Nelson gets more sun than any other spot in New Zealand.) As we move south, most days in February and March will continue to be in the 60s and low 70s, and you’ll sometimes be comfortable in shorts and t-shirt, but you’ll also need a light jacket occasionally. There are likely to be times when you are glad for a sweatshirt and jeans in the mountains, especially if it rains.
