A weather forecaster's hoping there can be clearer skies for our Government weather agencies with a merger on the way.
Legislation's coming to merge NIWA and MetService before the end of the year.
The Government says it'll deliver a more efficient agency, combining operations and streamlining back-office functions.
WeatherWatch's Phillip Duncan told Andrew Dickens he wants MetService's clear communication skills to be central to the new agency.
He says it's compared to NIWA, which frequently uses extreme words that often don't come true.
