Most online gardening and solar calculators use national averages or capital city data. Ours don't. Every calculation on this page pulls live readings from our weather station at Lyndhurst Hill, Dayboro, updated every 5 minutes.
That means when the frost calculator says tonight's risk is high, it's based on the actual soil temperature and dew point measured 4.5 km from the Dayboro town centre, not from a weather station at Brisbane Airport 45 km away.
