Knowing it’s one good swing away from being knocked down to the mat, Winter is trying to clinch up tight.

That’s why you may have woken up to some flurries falling — there is a 30 per cent chance of flurries and freezing drizzle forecasted for this morning, the last desperate blast of a fading season. Those flurries will wither by the late morning, leaving us with a high of 5 C and a wind chill of -10. Thursday will steer us back onto the golden path towards Spring, with a high of 11 C but also strong 20 km/h winds bringing the wind chill to -6.
