Some locations near tropical coasts, such as Mackay (--0.8 ° C), Townsville (0.1 ° C) and Kalumburu, Western Australia (0.3 ° C) have also recorded temperatures near 0 ° C. In contrast, some coastal locations, such as Darwin, have never fallen below 10 ° C, and Thursday Island, in the Torres Strait, has an extreme minimum of 16.1 ° C. The lowest maximum temperature on record in Australia was − 6.9 ° C (19.6 ° F), recorded on 9 July 1978 at Thredbo Ski Resort in New South Wales .
