Depends on where you are. New Zealand has a very variable climate. It stretches from the sub tropical north to cold temperate in the south a distance of more than a thousand miles. There are mountains which never rise above freezing and very warm inland valleys in summer. One of these valleys in the south island has New Zealand's coldest and hottest temperatures. Excepting the mountains the highs in December range from 22 deg C to 35 deg C. Dropping to 12-24 at night. But even in December (our summer) cold storms can hit in the mountains and hill country.


sometimes its really cold but usulley its warm

New Zealand has winter at the same time as the rest of the Southern Hemisphere, and all areas of the northern hemisphere have winter at the same time.
This is to do with axial tilt of the earth as it rotates around the sun. When tilted closer, a hemisphere has summer, and the other hemisphere, being tilted further away, has winter.
