Adelaide records coldest minimum temperature in 100 years

ABC  

Adelaide has shivered through its coldest September morning in a century with several South Australian towns dipping below zero degrees Celsius. "In fact, that's the West Terrace site's lowest September minimum temperature on record," he said. "Pretty significant because it's a very long record there, we've been measuring temperatures there for 100 years or so." Mr Timcke said a front late last week brought a cold air mass over parts of South Australia and along with it a string of chilly days. "With the high pressure system coming in, we haven't really seen a movement of that air mass," he said.
