As you might have guessed when you poked your head outside, Canberra has shivered through one of its coldest mornings of the year, falling just short of last month's low.
The temperature was recorded at -6.3 degrees just before 6am, a fraction less frosty than the -6.5 degrees on July 30, the coldest morning in four years. The bureau's readings jumped around a bit at that stage - going back up to -4.8 seven minutes later, before dropping again to -5.1 a few minutes after that - meaning meteorologists are checking if there were any issues.
