Strong Wind Watch Area: The Chatham Islands Forecast: Gale southwesterlies are expected. Although there is only a low chance they will reach severe gale over the Islands, there are accompanying large seas and heavy southwest swell which may result in waves of around 9 metres, or possibly more, on exposed coasts during Tuesday morning. Winds are likely to ease during Tuesday morning, but the large waves will continue into the afternoon. Impact: Note: A Severe Weather Warning or Watch means conditions are favourable for severe weather in and close to the indicated area. People in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening weather conditions and monitor for further updates from MetService.
