Depends where you live, the temperature station is at the airport. Its often colder there than in town. It varies greatly. FYI we've had frost every morning this week.

Metservice is saying that it is -2 in the city and 8 degrees in the eastern suburbs. A big difference. I just walked my son to the bus stop and there is a mild frost here in the east now.

No nothing, my 3 sons didn't have to defrost their windscreens, first one left home at 5.30am, next at 7.00am & last one at 8.00am. I was up at 6.30am went out & got paper & lawn was green. This morning there was a frost, -3 here.

Yes we have been so lucky not to have many frosts this year. I love the way we that we are considerably warmer than the rest of the city. Others complain about 'the awful easterly' but we don't find a problem with something that keeps us warmer in winter and protects us from the polluted air all year round. Plus we never really find there is much of a stork g easterly unless the rest of they City has it too.
Today is about our 4th frost of the year.

Im on pinewood ave just off bower or beach road. And we had a frost on tuesday it was pretty bad as my partner went to help a man off the ground then he slipped also and he was in his steel cap boots. my car still frozen at 10.40am and I had trouble getting the key in to let me in. Today is also frosty. I was sent a face book thing yesterday about spraying vinegar and water onto the windows of the car to stop them freezing or to help it come off. Would that really work? I haven't tried it as I don't have any vinegar.

I live in Parklands too and don't know what was happening at my place if it wasn't a frost every day and ??

I would recomend against using vinegar as it contains acetic acid which would tend to promote corrosion on metal parts of your car.

When my temp gauge doesn't go below 0, my lawn is green, no ice on our cars that constitutes no frost to me, our street must be blessed, we live off Forest Dr.
