About 15 - 20cm of new snow at high elevations and rain at mid elevations in the last 24hours. Loose wet and wet slab avalanche activity, along with wind slab on higher slopes are all possible. Take a conservative approach to any backcountry travel, taking note of changes in conditions as you move between aspects and elevations. Adjust your plans to suit.

Up to 25cm fell in above about 1700m in northern Fiordland. Expect some slab development in the steep ground near ridgetops. Below about 1700m expect a lattice of rain crusts or even rain-soaked snow at the very low elevations. Above 1800 this snow overlies a snowpack that is thought to be stable. It is expected to have layers but has been tested by strong wind loading and wind stripping from both the west and the SE in early August.
