Re: Frosts 2016
It's a cold one down here. My station got to a min of -2.3°C but it's in a poor location to record accurate mins and I need to move it. A station down the street is currently on -4.4°C. Interestingly, it's colder than yesterday but yesterday was much whiter, and today the car isn't even frosted over.
Dunedin Airport is on -7.1°C.

Re: Frosts 2016
Ground frost here, first of the year.
Hopefully the kentia Palms and Pukas in my garden have not been burnt.

Re: Frosts 2016
This morning frost here was so interesting, ive now worked out why it didn't get any colder after 10.00pm, there were warmer upper level winds that stopped any further radiative cooling, the NW wind cant have been that high above because the wind reached here about 9.00am which became rather pleasantly mild mid afternoon, just hope it keeps up.

Re: Frosts 2016
A hint of frost here this morning with the car catching some ice.
The first frost of the winter and hopefully the last, but looking range, a cold high for next weekend.

Re: Frosts 2016
Not too bad down here on/near the coast/harbour... But go inland it was a different story. Reports of serious Icing on SH 2, 5, 30, 33 & 36 etc in BOP area overnight. Tauranga got down to 1°C & Rotorua & Te Puke had reports of -1°C overnight. Needless to say a significant frost this morning.

Re: Frosts 2016
Slighter frost this morning, only down to minis 0.7, then resulting in a rather fine and pleasant day.
