Under the Hong Kong Community Weather Information Network (HK Co-WIN), the weather station at Elegantia College (in Sheung Shui district) captured a minimum temperature of 7°C around dawn on 29 Nov. 2008. The cold snap at the time necessitated the first cold warning by the Observatory, as temperatures plummeted and many places in Hong Kong reported temperatures below 10°C. Please visit the following HKO Side Lights webpage to see a short article on HK Co-WIN capturing the recent cold snap on 29 November 2008.
