Australians in two states woke up to the coldest June morning in 25 years as millions shivered through an icy start to Sunday.

One area in New South Wales was colder than parts of Antarctica, the sub-zero temperatures plummeting below Australia’s Antarctic research station, Weatherzone reports.

In Goulburn, the temperature reached a freezing -10 degrees this morning – which was colder than Davis Station in Antarctica, which hit a minimum of -8.4 degrees.

This marked Goulburn’s iciest morning in eight years and the city’s coldest June morning in 25 years.

Cooma in NSW’s south delivered similarly frosty temperatures with a minimum of -8.6 degrees just after dawn.

Meanwhile, in Canberra, temperatures were sitting at a crisp -7.6 degrees before 6am.

This was the nation’s capital’s coldest morning in eight years and also the iciest June morning in 39 years, according to Weatherzone.

Records were also broken nearby in Tuggeranong, which had its coldest morning since 2018 with a cool -7.5 degrees.

Tuggeranong’s temperature today also broke a 25-year record.

Australians in Forbes, Cowra, Temora and Young woke up to sub-zero temperatures today too.

Australia’s south-east is being served some unusually cold June temperatures this weekend thanks to a high-pressure system hovering around the region.

The cooler weather is expected to move east later today.

Minimum temperatures are forecast to warm slightly from Tuesday onwards in ACT and NSW.
