Mist slowly rises off Lake Hawea after a frosty start to the week yesterday morning.

It was a cold start to the day for most of Otago. Nearby Wanaka dropped to -1degC. Alexandra was -4degC at 6am and Queenstown was not far behind with a low of -3degC.

The MetService is forecasting an unsettled period for the next few days, as a trough makes its way across the Tasman Sea.

Mist forms on lakes and ponds when warmer air above the water mixes with and is rapidly cooled by colder air.
