Here is a wider angle view showing the atmospheric river set up of NZ's climate as the ICTZ (monsoon belt) is moving south for summer.

1. Warm wet air comes in from the north heading south east.
2. Cold air comes in from the south heading north west.
The storm currently affecting NZ contains a combination of warm and cold streams merging south east of NZ and curling back around to target NZ from the South West. This set up is similar to the severe easterly Canterbury Gales back in May.
