-6 this morning now -2 with hoar frost and fog

With all this snow about helped give my area the hardest frost of the year of -8.8

Had a strong westerly here untill 1am, Calmed down though and we also got our hardest frost of the year so far. Currently -6.7 degrees funny thing is though there is hardly any frost on the ground.

It only dropped below freezing here at about 4am when the breeze died out but still got down to -5.2°C.

Slight touch of frost here - but no snow!

Cracker of a frost here this morning..

Wow, that is a riper Dale,i see the slack buggers still haven't fixed the guttering over the road, here its like snowstormwatcher said,the air is so dry there's hardly any frost crystals with it.

Yeah man, I can't repeat here what I said when I walked outside this morning and saw that lol, but it has put some of the Queensland ones i've been through to shame.
Over the road, that whole pool is all done by volunteer hands so in due time it will get fixed

This thread is guna get aseholes this coming week with at least 6 fine days in a row.

Got down to -6C,but at least there's a bit more warmth in the sun now

Yeah should be some good frosts coming up,At least there isnt much snow on the hills around here so that should lessen the severity. Down to -5.7 degrees here this morning.

Only got down to -2.4°C here this morning with thick fog which had cleared by sunrise.

Second morning in a row with -6

Frost here again, similar to the last. About 2°C outside presently.

Slightly warmer than the last two mornings,a -5C frost

The frosts are still sitting around the -5 mark,hopefully get a bit of a brake in them over the next few days.
