While they didn’t reach this year’s lowest minimum (-1.5 degrees on May 30) temperatures sat around the three to four degree mark for the city and didn’t climb much higher during the day. 

By midday Sunday the temperature had climbed to 5.6 degrees while on Saturday the temperature only reached 2.9 degrees. 

Roads around the region remained closed over the weekend with Cabonne Council electing to keep the access road to Mount Canobolas closed. 

Warnings were also in place for anyone travelling to Sydney with roads between Bathurst and Lithgow affected by the alpine conditions. 

The warnings remained in place on Sunday afternoon with emergency services and transport authorities monitoring the situation at regular intervals. 

Weatherzone meterologist Rob Sharpe told Fairfax Media a deep low pressure system south of Tasmania was directing a cold front over the country's south-east that was more typical for July and August.

"It's not every year you get a front this strong in June," Mr Sharpe said

Snowfalls are again predicted for the region on Monday. Temperatures are expected to drop to minus one before reaching a maximum of three degrees. 

On Tuesday the forecast is for a cloudy day with a top of six degrees. 

It isn’t until Wednesday when it is expected the weather will warm up with a top of 10 degrees predicted after a frosty start to the morning.
