By Sunday morning, however, conditions had become more settled., The wind had decreased considerably, and almost generally the weather was flue. The only- place reporting rain at 9 a.m. today was Eussell, where there were passing squally showers. The controlling influence on the pressure distribution has. been an Intense anti-cyclone, the centre of which has remained stationary between tho South Island and the. Chatham,lslands.- This- morning this anti-cyelonfl extended from east of the Ciiathaxns to Australia, and. a fine spoil of. several days at least is indicated for the • Dominion.

Tho forecast is for south-easterly' to easterly winds, fresh ■in places from Cook Strait northwards, but light to moderate elsewhere.
