Rain will end the weekend for those in the far North and far South.
A rainfall warning has been issued for Fiordland tomorrow, and brief heavy rain was likely in Westland, MetService said.
Between 60 to 80 millimetres of rain was likely in a six- to nine-hour period in Fiordland.
People in the area were advised to watch out for rapidly rising streams and rivers, MetService said.
The rain was not expected to last long enough to reach warning criteria though.
A period of heavy rain was then likely to pound Northland from Sunday night and into Monday.
