After Dunedin temperatures nudged the low twenties earlier this month, they plunged to single figures yesterday, when snow dusted the hills around the city.
Dunedin city reached a high of only 7 degrees Celsius, but the temperature was even colder at 1degC on Swampy Summit at 3.30pm.
The snow caused overnight temperatures to fall to zero throughout the region, with Ranfurly recording a chilly -3degC.
The southerly was expected to bring more snow to 500m last night, before turning easterly today with more showers and strong winds at times, a MetService forecaster said.
