Brr lucky I have a day off today... dropped down to -4°C at Hamilton Airport and -1.9°C in the city at my station, new all time record! - And it aint even July..

-5.6°C frost recorded in Tokoroa too!

Sitting on a relatively warm 6.5°C at 11.45am.

Yes - it was clear, white and cool here!! A new alltimerecord today and it will get broken HAHA! Records only since early May and then lost data with no Wx during mid to end May. All good now

PS - I have yet to edit out those bad high windspeed readings - loose cable problems at the time...

Notice -5.1 was windchill temp... actual min recorded at home was -2.6degC



The video cam will show the morning shots - am trying to slow the WU video down, I think Speed=100 may be a better setting, too fast to really see anything...

I smiled this morning - kids getting ready to bike 3kms to schools and I usually bike 10kms to work but have Engineering Call-Out car at the moment so I gave my two pairs of gloves out to first up this morning

On the subject of cold cant help but notice the minimum suggestion of -8 for Dunedin tomorrow.

It's going to be a cold one tonight, faint southerly calming down and clear skies, below 2ºC at 6:30pm already... -1ºC/hr as it cools...

I dont think there will be any frost up this way on the west coast....a bit of cloud rolled in on the SSW late in the day, and the wind got up...still at 10 kts here now....

-0.1ºC at 8pm and -1.2ºC/hr.Baro climbing too 1021.5 and at +1.6hPa/hr Wind still 0.0 although max gust was 4km/hr last hr. Fire and one heater going. DW has gone to bed... but I have some work to do...

Fine here for two more days - cloudy/damp on Friday. and maybe NE on Saturday with more showers but warmer...

Waiuku got down to -1.5°C
We got down to 2.9 here....(slight wind blowing). One of the coldest mornings here for a long time

-4.5ºC min at home but Arthur had down to -6.5ºC in a sheltered area.

Lovely day!!

Coldest we got to in Omarama was -8.6 °C at 08:38 this morning.

The coldest so far this winter was a relatively mild -10.4 °C at 08:24 on 22 June.

All-in-all a very unmemorable winter so far.

It reminds me of 2004 and 2005 when we essentially got no winter, just kind of slid from autumn into spring.

Last nights min -7.2° in town -8° out Earnscluegh

Station record got smashed this morning by half a degree to -2.4°C at 7.40am.

The southeasterly is dying out completely now, and it's already 7.4°C. Maybe another one tomorrow morning to test this morning's record.

I note Hamilton Airport only dropped to -3.3°C.

All-in-all a very unmemorable winter so far.

and so the snow that otago and inland southland got was not memorable?

Not particularly. It was barely 6" in total in most inhabited places. Aside from the sad death of the student in Wanaka, not much happened. And almost all of that snow has been gone for days.

No, however it looked a good fall for Alexandra.
