What is the weather in Te Anau tomorrow and over the next week?

For the weather in Te Anau tomorrow, check the live forecast above – it updates hourly.

Night-time lows hover around 5–10°C in winter, while summer highs rarely exceed 22°C. For a longer view, look at the weather in Te Anau 10 days section of the live radar and forecast panel. The weather in Te Anau 30 day forecast is less reliable here; short-term changes are driven by the Southern Ocean.

How does Milford Sound weather compare with Te Anau?

Milford Sound weather is closely linked to Te Anau’s. The fiord sits 120 kilometres north-east and receives even more rain – often double the annual total. If the live forecast shows rain for Te Anau, expect heavier falls at Milford. Drivers on the Milford Road should check the 7-day outlook, as avalanche and slip risks rise after wet periods.

Yes. Summer (Dec–Feb) averages 14–20°C with rain every second day. Winter (Jun–Aug) sees 2–10°C and frosts. The 30-day forecast is unreliable beyond 7 days – use the 7-day outlook for planning.
