These are the temperatures recorded over the
weekend using a data logger which
sat on a bike. The points to note are - Left Dunedin at 8:30, arrived on site about
10:30am. Interesting to see the temp
rise overnight.
Left again on Sun at about 11am, the big drop at the end around 1pm down
to 2 deg is over the road from Middlemarch where it was snowing at Lee Stream!
Thanks to Nigel Barrett, one of the OMCC members this information and log.
As you can see form the above the "Brass
Monkey" did not live up to it's
reputation this year.
