The sun might be shining now – and the city thawing – but it’s no surprise #melbourneweather is still trending on Twitter.
We’ve just experienced our coldest morning in four years, with a blistering low of 0.8 degrees around 7.30am. It hasn’t been this chilly since the morning of August 29, 2018.
Across the city, early morning frost bit hard, freezing everything from hoses to bird baths and igniting the obligatory “‘Fuck, it’s cold’” routine across our social platforms.

Yeah, so getting out of bed was the worst mistake of my life. My toes want to fall off.

Just want to stay under an electric blanket all day and alternate b/w eating soup & toasties and drinking Italian hot chocolate. 🤷🏻♀️🥶⛄️#melbourneweather pic.twitter.com/J8vrrVn1TT
Happy “quick, take a photo of the temperature displayed on your car dashboard before it goes up a degree day”. 😊 #melbourneweather
