Low of 1.0C here with a light frost. Thought it would have been colder than that, as it was already 2C at 11pm... maybe because it's early in the season

The battery in my little outdoor gadget must be flat, display just showing a row of dots, but clearly it's below zero C - lawn and rooves white.

Will wait for the sun to be higher in the sky before replacing battery :B
