Edit: to confess that the low temperatures as given were in error, due to inept operation of equipment. I hope that particular mistake will not happen again. Sorree.

Same here as well,6 low and no wind

[Orion]

A thin rime of ice on the car, and white on the grass in spots.
Air temp. -1.3 degrees [accurate this time, not like my incorrect reading last week]

[snowstormwatcher]

only got down -0.2 degrees here due to wind most of the night which only calmed down around 5am. Very little ice due to low humidity.

[Richard]

Had no wind here all night so much colder,interesting that the ground air temp was no different to the air temp due to warmer soil temps i would imagine,-4deg
