k Winds in New Zealand, illustration Illustration showing how westerly winds are funnelled around the islands of New Zealand. The winds reaching New Zealand are stronger than they would be at the same latitudes in the northern hemisphere as they have only been blowing over ocean, which causes much less friction than land. Wellington, at the narrowest point in the Cook Strait between the North and South Islands, experiences the highest wind speeds in New Zealand.
