If you thought it was a little colder than usual when you jumped out of bed this morning, you're not wrong!
The Hunter experienced its coldest morning since last winter with the mercury dropping to -2.2 degrees at Cessnock at about 5:45am, while Cooranbong dipped to just below freezing.
Elsewhere Nobby's had a balmy 7.5 degrees and it hit 4.2 degrees at Williamtown.
The weather bureau says there's even a possibility of a dusting of snow on the Barrington Tops later today.
