CLIMATE AND SPRING OF NEW ZEALAND


I’m going to talk about the difference of climate in NZ and about spring. NZ has a different climate between east and west. East is dry and west is wet. This difference is caused by the Alps Mountain because moist wind blows from Australia and it hits the Alps, so west is often rainy. After that losing moisture wind has passed the high mountains, it becomes hot and dry, so bringing little rainfall to east.
Spring in NZ is September to November. However Japan is about March to May. When New Zealand is spring, Japan is autumn. There is a very hot day but also very cold day. Many spring events are held on this season. For exampleThe World of Wearable art,Kaikoura Seafest,Toast Martinborough and so on. This season is the most suitable for rafting. Because snow changed water and the river is swell. You may excite it.
