The TV3 news had Queenstown and Alexandra down to -6 overnight.

In my opinion there arenâ€™t enough snow on those hills for those sorts of temperatures.

-3 to -4 is more likely. But we see..

It must of been about 4 or 5 degrees today but not as cold as it used to be when I was a kid (remember skating on ice on the footpaths going to school)

but the sun is out today which makes up for a cold night

Second coldest morning of the year in Hillmorton this morning, it was -3.3 at 06:30. Coldest morning so far has been -3.9 on the 18th. This could be bettered tonight.

Rather cool at the airport at 06:00 -5.1, coldest of any of the stations that data is available for at that time.

NZ Thunderstorm Soc · Thu 26/06/2003 15:32

I got minus 5.5 in the end. I checked my screen at 7am just before I went to work and it was minus 5 then so it must of got a wee bit cooler just before sun-up. I'm not too sure of my lowest minimum, will have to check my diaries for that.
Ne blowing now well since noon so severity won't be as bad tonight.

A cold clear day with a max of 6.6, pressure is still high 1033mb so another good frost looks likely.

current temp @ 17:21 is 2.2

I bet you'll quickly drop below zero in Alexandra since the sun has gone down. By contrast, a northeast breeze here in Christchurch will probably prevent a repeat of this morning's big frost - if the breeze continues. About 6C at present.

Yep it was another cold night.

It was -2.8 at 21:30.

And this morning it got down to -7.2 and it is cold...

1032mb

a great sun rise to follow

The breeze must've died down, because we got another big frost this morning. Fourth biggie this month - means we probably won't end up with the mildest June on record, even if a good portion of the month has been unseasonably warm.
