COOL MORNINGS STILL TO COME – SOUTH ISLAND

While we are getting along now in terms of spring there may still be a few cool mornings to come, especially for the South Island. Alpine areas have a risk of a light frost this morning and again tomorrow, although tomorrow’s risk shifts to parts of Central Otago and the Lakes District. Friday when high pressure moves over has a greater chance of a frost overall.
