A fabulous umbrella may be a good idea It's going to be hot, sticky and maybe a little wet at the Big Gay Out in Auckland's Coyle Park this Sunday. If you're among the tens of thousands of people who will pack into Pt Chevalier's Coyle Park reserve for the campest day on the gay calendar, you may want to bring water, sunscreen, a fan and perhaps even an umbrella. WeatherWatch.co.nz has provided GayNZ.com with a special Big Gay Out forecast. It says sun, heat, humidity and possibly rain are on the cards for Coyle Park. Its latest weather data says conditions are likely to be fairly changeable due to yet another sub-tropical low. The weather set up will include a low pressure system just north of New Zealand that should bring in increased humidity, nor'easters and the risk of showers in the afternoon, however with current slow weather patterns WeatherWatch can't rule out the possibility the low may weaken or be late to arrive resulting in a mostly dry, sunny, afternoon. The event kicks off from midday and goes until 7pm and WeatherWatch suggests those attending keep up to date with the latest Auckland forecasts due to the current changeable weather pattern over northern New Zealand.
