In NZ, our main weather radars are:
NIWA: https://weather.niwa.co.nz/
Metservice: http://www.metservice.com/national/home

The evening news uses the data from Metservice, but I'm not sure if they use or swap the data with NIWA. I'm also not sure if they charge.

@tomslavkovsky Maybe you should clarify (in the headline) which type of radar data you can use for windy. Sites with radar pictures doesn't help i think.
Otherwise more and more of such not helpful links are posted here.
