IMHO, if I don't see at least about -2.5 at some stage during this incoming prolonged high then there is something going on with the climate.

Down to minus 2.1C this morning, resulting in a perfect winter's day with no cloud and wind.
Looks like it will be like this for the rest of the week to end off June. :smile:

Mildish breeze out there now. Don't think will get a frost until Wednesday morning but might be six in a row from then on.

My station about 1.2C above the same time last night which might mean it won't go any lower overnight than it did last night.

Must have had some passing cloud or some breeze overnight, clear now and just trying to drop to 0 before the sun comes up.
