A high covers New Zealand over the weekend and brings a mixed bag of weather, says the MetService.

Usually we think of a high associated with fine weather.

However, there will be some moisture in the form of cloud trapped underneath this high interrupting sunny weather.

Tomorrow we see a weak front bring drizzle to the northeast of the North Island while the high sits over the rest of the country.

Apart from some morning cloud and a spot of drizzle the South Island is set to clear up by the afternoon.

'The high expands over central and northern New Zealand on Saturday but we're expecting more cloud than sunshine as there isn't much wind to blow the cloud away,” says MetService spokesperson Tuporo Marsters.

Saturday will be warm with maximum temperatures in the low 20s or high teens.

A front comes onto the far south during the afternoon bringing some rain there then fades away at night.
