The capital is expecting a minimum of 9 degrees today for the first morning of winter - the coldest day since last August.

It will be cooler further inland with Ipswich expecting 6 degrees and the Darling Downs set for more frosts, after Oakey, Dalby and Warwick all recorded sub-zero temperatures on Wednesday morning.

Warwick's -2.7 degrees was the coldest minimum the rural city had weathered since August 2015, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.

BoM forecaster David Bernard said a drier air mass had made for chilly mornings in inland areas from below Mt Isa.
