Canterbury police are searching for a 17-year-old who has been missing since Sunday.

Isabella left the Darfield area just before 3pm on Sunday afternoon, intending to travel to Greymouth and to the glaciers.

However, police say her family haven't been able to make contact with her since "and have concerns for her welfare given the current weather forecast".

Canterbury is expecting showers over the next day, while thunderstorms are likely on the West Coast.

"Police would like to hear from anyone who has seen Isabella since Sunday afternoon.

"Anyone with information on her whereabouts at any stage since Sunday is asked to contact Police on 105 and quote file number 200826/7243."
