Re: Frosts 2021
Getting a little colder each night, Sat 3rd, -2.1C, Sun 4th -2.4C , hoping the finale tonight may be the coldest night of the winter (predict -2.7 by extrapolation), even though have 7 weeks of it to go.

Re: Frosts 2021
Ground temp has dropped 4 degrees in the past few days so that will be helping to drop air temp at night. I’m picking -3.5 coming tonight. Still not into positives yet so I anticipate a quick cooling this evening. Havnt had a 5.30pm ice form in quite a few years so might be on the cards tonight.cbm wrote:Getting a little colder each night, Sat 3rd, -2.1C, Sun 4th -2.4C , hoping the finale tonight may be the coldest night of the winter (predict -2.7 by extrapolation), even though have 7 weeks of it to go.

Re: Frosts 2021
Another ground frost here in the open areas along our street, no frost in my garden so far so subtropical plants should be okay.

Re: Frosts 2021
Running 2C lower here at the moment compared to the same time yesterday, if the wind stays away we could be looking at -8C here in West Melton…

Re: Frosts 2021
Down to zero already. interesting to see what tonight's minimum will be?
Permafrost still around in shaded areas since yesterday and the bird bath is still frozen.

Re: Frosts 2021
Easterly breeze and scattered clouds in town, should take the edge off things

Re: Frosts 2021
Lawn, driveway, roofs, and footpath across the street are white with frost, though air temp apparently remained above 0° all night.
Currently around +3°C.

Re: Frosts 2021
As I expected it stayed above freezing in ChCh, that easterly breeze went all night. Minimum of 7 degrees at our place

Re: Frosts 2021
Another good frost here overnight but it went off earlier than yesterday as high cloud cover from the west moved across.
Down to minus 5.5C again resulting in a rather cold day with a thickening NW Arch with no sunshine and no wind as a result from the frost overnight and early this morning.
