No frost or ice this morning in the Pukke area, just annoying drizzle. Although last night it was bone chillingly cold, I expected a coating this morning but no.. was tucked up in bed very early last night, nasty toothache & a head full of nurofen, left the other 4 to tend to the fire but even they failed so was a bit of a cold shock when I got up around midnight.

Still quite a few needles but not the drift wood look because it not less than 240 degrees.Didn't really get the strong winds expected here today, maybe because it has been WSW instead of SW
Anyway this being a frost thread in a couple of days with the intense anticyclone it could get down to 2 or 3 then.

[snowstormwatcher]

Slight westerly breeze here as there often is after a snow fall will probably keep the frost from getting to severe here tonight currently 3.5 degrees.

[Lukemyster]

Has just dipped below zero on Jeff's station at 7.20pm

[CHCH Weather Chaser]

-1 outside at the moment already here as well.

[Richard]

-7 some time during the night, now on -4.

[Lukemyster]

Well before i went to bed around 10pm Metservice was reading -3.6 and Jeff was reading -2.2. Freezing early start to watch the football game but only -1C out so not too bad:)

[Razor]

Best frost of the year so far for us in Cracroft Valley

[jamie]

Should be our first rip snorta frost tonight. Just need the wind to hurry up and calm down.

[David]

Down to 7 here already, may end up with some light frost here if I'm lucky

[Dale]

Yeah its calm as outside atm & cold.. stupid me had to goto Takanini for an emergency tooth extraction earlier this evening & didnt stoke the fire up so this place is freezing, the looks the missus is throwing me are colder than the frost we may get in the morning

[Michael]

about 4 here,less ice on car this morning,soccar1-1 in the night against Slovakia,heard against the din of the "buzzing bees"

Sorry this is off topic, but a great result for the 'All Whites', especially sweet when you equalise well into time added on. It was a lovely sunny day in Rustenberg today, but cool at 10*C max temp. These sort of conditions will suit the European teams.

The last frost recorded in the UK at Met Office sites was -1.7*C at Braemar, Scotland on the 31st May, although a minimum of -4.4*C was recorded at Tulloch Bridge, also Scotland, on the 25th May. With northerly or north-easterly winds predicted for the next 5 days, patchy frost is again likely in prone areas.

[Nev]

4.0C here with some ice on the windscreen. Coldest morn of the year so far.

I think Akld Aero got down to at least 3.2C and Hamilton Aero -1.9C.

I think Akld Aero got down to at least 3.2C and Hamilton Aero -1.9C.

Got down to 1.9 here, no grass frost but some ice on the lower step of the deck and also on the car. Was expecting it to be colder as it was already 3.5 at midnight.

[Andy]

-5 @ 5:50am, warmer now as we have the fog -2.4

and I almost turned the TV off near the end

I thought we may have got our first frost of the year this morn but not quite cold enough.

[Dale]

Solid coating of ice on the vehicles this morning & a very light ground frost in the usual places in all the paddocks, definately the coldest of the year so far. Awesome day out there now so the washing machine is in overdrive atm

[NZ Thunderstorm Soc]
