I presume it's expected at this time of year. Spring in my experience tends to be a season with a lot of rain (and yet also a lot of sun), and I think of the West Coast as being a reasonably wet area (with no basis for that, because I've never been there).
Yup, definitely our wettest and least settled period here. And you should plan a visit - it's a stunning part of the country!
I've seen scarily little of the South Island. A bit around the top, and one trip to Christchurch pre-quake where I flew in and out. I plan to do a bigger trip one day, just haven't got there yet.
