Bay of Plenty residents are in for another weekend of unpredictable weather with sun, rain and wind forecast for the region.

While today is looking fine with evening cloud and westerly winds, the MetService is forecasting a cloudy day with the chance of rain and northwest winds turning to southwest on Saturday.

Three seasons in one weekend seems to be the theme this weekend with wind, rain and sun predicted.

Sunday is looking more on the fine side, with southwest winds dying out before the rain returns on Monday.

MetService meteorologist John Law says during Saturday a band of rain will continue to move northwards across the North Island.

'Ahead of it, northwesterly winds are set to make it a blustery start to the weekend for many,” explains John.

'The winds will also make it feel cooler, with the return of some colder air to the south of the country.

'On Sunday the weather looks settled at first, but a developing system over the Tasman Sea is forecast to head towards the North Island for Monday, bringing the return of some wetter and windier weather next week.”
